Configuring a Custom Bucket Policy (Common Mode)

If you want to grant special permissions to specific users, you can configure custom bucket policies. If a standard bucket policy conflicts with a custom bucket policy, the authorization priority is given to the custom bucket policy and then the standard bucket policy.

This topic describes how to configure a custom bucket policy in common mode (GUI).

Procedure

1. In the bucket list, click the bucket to be operated. The Overview page of the bucket is displayed.
2. In the navigation pane on the left, click Permissions to go to the permission management page.
3. On the Bucket Policies tab page, configure a custom bucket policy according to your needs.

   On the right of Custom Bucket Policies, select Common mode to configure the policy in the GUI mode.

4. Click Create Bucket Policy. Select a proper policy mode as required. Valid values are as follows:
   • Read-only: The authorized user will be granted with the read permission on the bucket and objects. For subsequent operations, see 5.
   • Read and write: The authorized user will be granted with read and write permissions on the bucket and objects. For subsequent operations, see 5.
   • Customized: The authorized user will be granted with customized permissions on the bucket and objects. For detailed configuration, see 6.
   

   Only one bucket policy mode can be configured at a time.

5. For the read-only and read and write modes, enter information about the authorized user in the following format and click OK.
