Granting Other Accounts the Read Permission for Certain Objects
Scenario
This case describes how to grant other accounts (excluding IAM users under the account) the read permission for an object or a type of objects in an OBS bucket. For details about how to grant permissions to an IAM user, see Granting IAM Users Under an Account the Access to a Bucket and the Resources in It.
Recommended Configuration
Use bucket policies to grant permissions to other accounts.
Precautions
After configuration, they can read (download) specific objects using APIs. However, if they download an object from OBS Console or OBS Browser+, a message will be displayed, indicating that they do not have required permissions.
When they log in to OBS Console or OBS Browser+, the ListAllMyBuckets API is called to load the bucket list and some other APIs will also be called on other pages, but their permissions do not cover those APIs. In such case, the message is displayed.
Procedure
- In the navigation pane of OBS Console, choose Object Storage.
- In the bucket list, click the bucket name you want to go to the Objects page.
- In the navigation pane, choose Permissions > Bucket Policies.
- On the Bucket Policies page, click Create.
- Configure a bucket policy.
