Creating a Bucket¶
Functions¶
This operation is used to create a bucket with a specified name.
Note
By default, a user can have a maximum of 100 buckets.
The name of a deleted bucket can be reused for a bucket at least 30 minutes after the deletion.
You can enable WORM when you create a bucket, but you cannot enable WORM for an existing bucket. In a bucket with WORM enabled, you can further configure retention policies for objects you upload to this bucket. For more information, see Configuring a Default WORM Policy for a Bucket. Once enabled, WORM cannot be disabled for a bucket. When you create a bucket with WORM enabled, OBS automatically enables versioning for the bucket and the versioning cannot be suspended for that bucket.
A bucket name must be unique in OBS. If a user creates a bucket with the same name as that of an existing bucket under the same account and in the same region, a 200 code (indicating success) is returned. In scenarios other than the preceding one, the request for creating a bucket with the same name as that of an existing one will receive the 409 code (indicating that a namesake bucket already exists). To set an access control policy for the bucket to be created, you can add the x-obs-acl parameter to request headers.

Request Parameters¶

Request Headers¶
The operation message header is the same as that of a common request. For details, see Table 3. However, this request can contain additional headers. The following table describes the additional headers for this request.
Header | Description | Mandatory |
---|---|---|
x-obs-acl | When creating a bucket, you can add this header to set the permission control policy for the bucket. The predefined common policies are as follows: private, public-read, public-read-write, public-read-delivered, and public-read-write-delivered. Type: string | No |
x-obs-grant-read | This header grants the read permission to all users under an account. It allows you to list objects in a bucket, list multipart tasks in a bucket, list multi-version objects in a bucket, and obtain bucket metadata. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-read:id=Tenant ID | No |
x-obs-grant-write | This header grants the write permission to all users under an account. Therefore, the users can create, delete, and overwrite all objects in a bucket, and can initialize parts, upload parts, copy parts, merge parts, and cancel multipart upload tasks. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-write:id=Tenant ID | No |
x-obs-grant-read-acp | This header grants the ACL read permission to all users under an account. Therefore, the users can read the bucket ACL information. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-read-acp:id=Account ID | No |
x-obs-grant-write-acp | This header grants the ACL write permission to all users under an account. Therefore, the users can modify the ACL of the bucket. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-write-acp:id=Account ID | No |
x-obs-grant-full-control | This header grants the full control permission to all users under an account. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-full-control:id=Account ID | No |
x-obs-grant-read-delivered | This header grants the read permission to all users under an account. By default, the read permission is applied to all objects in the bucket. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-read-delivered:id=Account ID | No |
x-obs-grant-full-control-delivered | This header grants the full control permission to all users under an account. By default, the FULL_CONTROL permission is applied to all objects in the bucket. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-full-control-delivered:id=Account ID | No |
x-obs-bucket-object-lock-enabled | When creating a bucket, you can use this header to enable WORM for the bucket. Type: string Example: x-obs-bucket-object-lock-enabled:true | No |
Request Elements¶
This request can use additional elements. For details about additional elements, see Table 2.
Element | Description | Mandatory |
---|---|---|
