Deleting a Bucket Policy

Function

OBS provides access control over buckets. You can use an access policy to define whether a user can perform certain operations on a specific bucket. OBS access control can be implemented using IAM permissions, bucket policies, and ACLs. For more information, see .

You can call ObsClient.deleteBucketPolicy to delete the policy of a bucket. OBS returns 204 No Content if the deletion is successful or the requested bucket policy does not exist.

Restrictions

• To delete the policy of a bucket, you must be the bucket owner or the bucket owner's IAM user with the required permission (obs:bucket:DeleteBucketPolicy in IAM or DeleteBucketPolicy in a bucket policy).

Method

obsClient.deleteBucketPolicy(String bucketName)

Request Parameters

Table 1 List of request parameters

Parameter	Type	Mandatory (Yes/No)	Description
bucketName	String	Yes	Explanation: Bucket name. Restrictions: A bucket name must be unique across all accounts and regions. A bucket name: Must be 3 to 63 characters long and start with a digit or letter. Lowercase letters, digits, hyphens (-), and periods (.) are allowed. Cannot be formatted as an IP address. Cannot start or end with a hyphen (-) or period (.). Cannot contain two consecutive periods (..), for example, my..bucket. Cannot contain periods (.) and hyphens (-) adjacent to each other, for example, my-.bucket or my.-bucket. If you repeatedly create buckets of the same name in the same region, no error will be reported and the bucket attributes comply with those set in the first creation request. Default value: None

Responses

Table 2 Common response headers

Parameter	Type	Description
statusCode	int	Explanation: HTTP status code. Value range: A status code is a group of digits that can be 2xx (indicating successes) or 4xx or 5xx (indicating errors). It indicates the status of a response. Default value: None
responseHeaders	Map<String, Object>	Explanation: HTTP response header list, composed of tuples. In a tuple, the String key indicates the name of the header, and the Object value indicates the value of the header. Default value: None

Code Examples

This example deletes the policy of bucket exampleBucket.

import com.obs.services.ObsClient;
import com.obs.services.exception.ObsException;
public class DeleteBucketPolicy001 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Obtain an AK/SK pair using environment variables or import the AK/SK pair in other ways. Using hard coding may result in leakage.
        // Obtain an AK/SK pair on the management console.
        String ak = System.getenv("ACCESS_KEY_ID");
        String sk = System.getenv("SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_ID");
        // (Optional) If you are using a temporary AK/SK pair and a security token to access OBS, you are advised not to use hard coding, which may result in information leakage.
        // Obtain an AK/SK pair and a security token using environment variables or import them in other ways.
        // String securityToken = System.getenv("SECURITY_TOKEN");
        // Enter the endpoint corresponding to the region where the bucket is to be created.
        String endPoint = "https://your-endpoint";
        // Obtain an endpoint using environment variables or import it in other ways.
        //String endPoint = System.getenv("ENDPOINT");

        // Create an ObsClient instance.
        // Use the permanent AK/SK pair to initialize the client.
        ObsClient obsClient = new ObsClient(ak, sk,endPoint);
        // Use the temporary AK/SK pair and security token to initialize the client.
        // ObsClient obsClient = new ObsClient(ak, sk, securityToken, endPoint);

        try {
            // Example bucket name
            String exampleBucket = "examplebucket";
            obsClient.deleteBucketPolicy(exampleBucket);
        } catch (ObsException e) {
            System.out.println("DeleteBucketAcl failed");
            // Request failed. Print the HTTP status code.
            System.out.println("HTTP Code:" + e.getResponseCode());
            // Request failed. Print the server-side error code.
            System.out.println("Error Code:" + e.getErrorCode());
            // Request failed. Print the error details.
            System.out.println("Error Message:" + e.getErrorMessage());
            // Request failed. Print the request ID.
            System.out.println("Request ID:" + e.getErrorRequestId());
            System.out.println("Host ID:" + e.getErrorHostId());
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("DeleteBucketAcl failed");
            // Print other error information.
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}
