Object Storage Service:Configure RAM policies to authorize user access to OSS

Last Updated:Mar 05, 2024

Resource Access Management (RAM) policies are user-based authorization policies. You can configure RAM policies to manage user access to your resources in Object Storage Service (OSS).

Background information

  • Syntax and structure of RAM policies

    A RAM policy contains a version number and a list of statements. Each statement contains the following elements: Effect, Action, Resource, and Condition. The Condition element is optional. For more information about the syntax and structure of RAM policies, see Policy structure and syntax.

    You can use the Version, Statement, and Effect elements in the RAM policies for OSS in the same manner as you use the elements in the policies for RAM. For more information about how to use the Action, Resource, and Condition elements in RAM policies for OSS, see the following sections in this topic:

  • Common RAM policies for OSS

    • AliyunOSSFullAccess: grants a RAM user the full permissions on OSS resources.

    • AliyunOSSReadOnlyAccess: grants a RAM user the read-only permissions on OSS resources.

  • Access control

    For more information about the access control methods supported by OSS, see Overview.
