Example 1: Using a Bucket ACL to Grant Permissions Required for Adding an External Bucket¶
A bucket ACL can be used to grant the read and write access to a bucket. If only the read access to the bucket is granted, the authorized user can only add the bucket and list objects in the bucket, but cannot upload objects to the bucket. To upload objects to the bucket, the authorized user also needs the write access to the bucket. Permissions controlled by a bucket ACL are as follows:
Bucket ACL | Option | Mapped Action in a Custom Bucket Policy |
|---|---|---|
Access to Bucket | Read |
|
Write |
| |
Access to ACL | Read | GetBucketAcl |
Write | PutBucketAcl |
Procedure¶
Log in to OBS Console.
In the bucket list, click the bucket you want to operate. The Overview page is displayed.
In the navigation pane on the left, click Permissions to go to the permission management page.
Click Bucket ACL. The Bucket ACL page is displayed.
Click Add, enter the account ID of the user that will add the bucket to OBS Browser, and select the read and write access to the bucket.
Note
If you want to authorize such access to all users, in the Public Permissions area, grant the Anonymous User the read and write access to the bucket.
Account ID corresponds to Domain ID on the My Credentials page.
