Uploading Objects - PUT
Functions
After bucket creation in OBS, you can use this operation to upload an object to the bucket. This operation uploads an object to a bucket. To use this operation, you must have the write permission on the bucket.
With versioning not enabled, if an object to be uploaded has the same name as an existing object in the bucket, the newly uploaded object will overwrite the existing one. To protect data from being corrupted during transmission, you can add the Content-MD5 parameter in the request header. After receiving the request, OBS will perform an MD5 consistency check. If the two MD5 values are inconsistent, the system returns an error message.
You can also specify the value of the x-obs-acl parameter to configure an access control policy for the object. If the x-obs-acl parameter is not specified when an anonymous user uploads an object, the object can be accessed by all OBS users by default.
This operation supports server-side encryption.
For a single upload, the size of the object to be uploaded ranges [0, 5 GB]. To upload a file greater than 5 GB, see Operations on Multipart Upload.
OBS does not have real folders. To facilitate data management, OBS provides a method to simulate a folder by adding a slash (/) to the object name, for example, test/123.jpg. You can simulate test as a folder and 123.jpg as the name of a file under the test folder. However, the object key remains test/123.jpg. Objects named in this format appear as folders on the console. When you upload an object larger than 0 in size using this format, an empty folder will be displayed on the console, but the occupied storage capacity is the actual object size.
Differences Between PUT and POST Methods
Parameters are passed through the request header if the PUT method is used to upload objects; if the POST method is used to upload objects, parameters are passed through the form field in the message body.
With the PUT method, you need to specify the object name in the URL, but object name is not required with the POST method, which uses the bucket domain name as the URL. The request lines of the two methods are as follows:
PUT /ObjectName HTTP/1.1
POST / HTTP/1.1
For details about POST upload, see Uploading Objects - POST.
Versioning
If versioning is enabled for a bucket, the system automatically generates a unique version ID for the requested object in this bucket and returns the version ID in response header x-obs-version-id. If versioning is suspended for the bucket, the object version ID is null. For details about the versioning statuses of a bucket, see Configuring Versioning for a Bucket.
Request Syntax
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | PUT /ObjectName HTTP/1.1 Host: bucketname.obs.region.example.com Content-Type: application/xml Content-Length: length Authorization: authorization Date: date <Optional Additional Header> <object Content> |
Request Parameters
This request contains no parameters.
Request Headers
This request uses common headers. For details, see Table 3. The request can use additional headers, as listed in Table 1.

OBS supports the six HTTP request headers: Cache-Control, Expires, Content-Encoding, Content-Disposition, Content-Type, and Content-Language. If these headers are carried in an object upload request, their values are saved. You can also call the metadata modification API, provided by OBS, to change the values of the six headers. When the object is downloaded or queried, the saved values are set for corresponding HTTP headers and returned to the client.
Header |
Description |
Mandatory |
---|---|---|
Content-MD5 |
Base64-encoded 128-bit MD5 digest of the message according to RFC 1864. Type: string Example: n58IG6hfM7vqI4K0vnWpog== |
No |
x-obs-acl |
This header can be added to set access control policies for objects when creating the objects. The access control policies are the predefined common policies, including private, public-read, public-read-write. Type: string Note: This header is a predefined policy expressed in a character string. Example: x-obs-acl: public-read |
No |
x-obs-grant-read |
When creating an object, you can use this header to grant all users in an account the permissions to read objects and obtain object metadata. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-read: id=domainID. If multiple accounts are authorized, separate them with commas (,). |
No |
x-obs-grant-read-acp |
When creating an object, you can use this header to grant all users in an account the permissions to obtain the object ACL. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-read-acp: id=domainID. If multiple accounts are authorized, separate them with commas (,). |
No |
x-obs-grant-write-acp |
When creating an object, you can use this header to grant all users in an account the permission to write the object ACL. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-write-acp: id=domainID. If multiple accounts are authorized, separate them with commas (,). |
No |
x-obs-grant-full-control |
When creating an object, you can use this header to grant all users in an account the permissions to read the object, obtain the object metadata, obtain the object ACL, and write the object ACL. Type: string Example: x-obs-grant-full-control: id=domainID. If multiple accounts are authorized, separate them with commas (,). |
No |
x-obs-storage-class |
When creating an object, you can use this header to specify the storage class for the object. If you do not use this header, the object storage class is the default storage class of the bucket. Type: string Storage class value options: STANDARD (Standard), WARM (Warm), COLD (Cold). These values are case sensitive. Example: x-obs-storage-class: STANDARD |
No |
x-obs-meta-* |
When creating an object, you can use a header starting with x-obs-meta- to define object metadata in an HTTP request. The user-defined metadata will be returned in the response when you retrieve the object or query the object metadata. Type: string Example: x-obs-meta-test: test metadata Constraint: Both user-defined metadata keys and their values must conform to US-ASCII standards. |
No |
x-obs-website-redirect-location |
If a bucket is configured with the static website hosting function, it will redirect requests for this object to another object in the same bucket or to an external URL. OBS stores the value of this header in the object metadata. In the following example, the request header sets the redirection to an object (anotherPage.html) in the same bucket: x-obs-website-redirect-location:/anotherPage.html In the following example, the request header sets the object redirection to an external URL: x-obs-website-redirect-location:http://www.example.com/ Type: string Default value: none Constraint: The value must be prefixed by a slash (/), http://, or https://. The length of the value cannot exceed 2 KB. |
No |
x-obs-server-side-encryption |
Indicates that SSE-KMS is used. Type: string Example: x-obs-server-side-encryption: kms |
No. This header is required when SSE-KMS is used. |
x-obs-server-side-encryption-kms-key-id |
Master key ID. This header is used in SSE-KMS mode. If the customer does not provide the master key ID, the default master key ID will be used. If there is no such a default master key, the system will create one and use it by default. Type: string The following two formats are supported: 1. regionID:domainID:key/key_id 2. key_id regionID is the ID of the region to which the key belongs. domainID is the account ID of the tenant to which the key belongs. key_id is the key ID created in KMS.
