Operations in Object Storage Service (OSS) are implemented by calling OSS API operations. Fees are calculated based on the number of API calls. If you want to access Cold Archive data, you must first restore the data. You are charged data retrieval fees when you restore data.
Billable items
You are charged API operation calling fees based on the number of PUT and GET requests and retrieval for Cold Archive data.
- Number of PUT requests
A free quota of 100 million requests per month is provided. If the number of PUT requests per month is less than or equal to 100 million, you are not charged for OSS API operations that are called to send PUT requests.
- Number of GET requests
A free quota of 500 million requests per month is provided. If the number of GET requests per month is less than or equal to 500 million, you are not charged for OSS API operations that are called to send GET requests.
| Billable item | Billing rule | Billing cycle | Billing method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of PUT requests | You are charged for OSS API operations that are called to send PUT requests. For more
information about PUT requests, see PUT requests.
Note You are not charged for failed requests. Failed requests include requests for which
the HTTP status code 4xx or 5xx is returned.
|
You are billed on an hourly basis. The fees are automatically deducted from the balance of your Alibaba Cloud account. Bills are generally generated after a billing cycle ends. The time when bills are generated is determined by the system. |

| Number of GET requests | You are charged for OSS API operations that are called to send GET requests. For more
information about GET requests, see GET requests.
Note You are not charged for failed requests. Failed requests include requests for which
the HTTP status code 4xx or 5xx is returned.

| Data retrieval requests | Before you can access a Cold Archive object, you must restore the object. The amount
of time required to restore a Cold Archive object varies based on the data size and
the specified restoration mode. You are charged for data retrieval when you restore
a Cold Archive object.
Data retrieval requests are divided into the following types based on different restoration priorities of Cold Archive data:
