Object Storage Service (OSS) uses object metadata to describe object attributes. Object metadata includes standard HTTP headers and user metadata. You can configure HTTP headers to create custom HTTP request policies, such as object cache policies and policies for forced object downloads. You can also configure the user metadata of an object to identify the purposes or attributes of the object.
Standard HTTP headers
OSS retains standard HTTP headers for each object that is uploaded to buckets. The following table describes the standard HTTP headers.
Standard HTTP header | Description |
---|---|
Content-Type | The content type of the object. The browser determines the format and encoding type
that are used to read the object based on the content type of the object. If this
header is not specified, the value is generated based on the extension of the object
name. If the object name does not contain an extension, the default value application/octet-stream is used as the content type of the object. For more information about how to specify
the content type of the object, see How do I specify the Content-Type header? |
Content-Encoding | The encoding method of the object. You must specify this header based on the encoding
type of the object. Otherwise, the browser that serves as the client may fail to parse
the encoding type of the object, or the object may fail to be downloaded. If the object
is not encoded, leave this header empty. Default value: identity. Valid values:
For more information about Content-Encoding, see RFC 2616. Important If you want the static web page objects, such as HTML, JavaScript, XML, and JSON objects
to be compressed into GZIP objects when you access the objects, you must leave this
parameter empty and add the
Accept-Encoding: gzip header to your request.
|
Content-Language | The language of the object content. For example, if the content of an object is written in simplified Chinese, you can set this header to zh-CN. |
Content-Disposition | The method that is used to access the object. Valid values:
Before the object is downloaded to the specified path of the browser, take note of the following items: Note
Whether an object is previewed or downloaded as an attachment when the object is accessed by using the object URL is determined by the creation time of the bucket in which the object is stored, the activation time of OSS, and the domain name type. For more information, see What do I do if an image object is download as an attachment but cannot be previewed when I access the image object by using its URL? |
Cache-Control | The caching behavior for the object. Valid values:
|
Expires | The absolute expiration time of the cache in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Example: 2022-10-12T00:00:00.000Z . If Cache-Control is set to max-age=<seconds> , max-age=<seconds> takes precedence over the value of Expires.
|
Last-Modified | The time when the object is last modified. |
Content-Length | The size of the object. Unit: byte. |
User metadata
When you upload an object, you can add user metadata to identify the purposes or attributes of the object.
- You can configure multiple user metadata headers for an object. However, the total size of the user metadata of an object cannot exceed 8 KB.
- User metadata is a set of key-value pairs. The name of a user metadata header must
start with
x-oss-meta-
.x-oss-meta-last-modified:20210506
means that the local file was last modified on May 6, 2021. - When you call the GetObject operation or the HeadObject operation, the user metadata of the object is returned as HTTP headers.
Use the OSS console
You can configure object metadata for up to 100 objects at a time in the OSS console.
Use ossbrowser
You can use ossbrowser to perform the same object-level operations that you can perform in the OSS console. You can follow the on-screen instructions in ossbrowser to configure object metadata. For more information about how to use ossbrowser, see Use ossbrowser.
Use OSS SDKs
The following code provides examples on how to configure object metadata by using OSS SDKs for common programming languages. For more information about how to configure object metadata by using OSS SDKs for other programming languages, see Overview.

Use ossutil
For more information about how to configure object metadata by using ossutil, see set-meta (manage object metadata).
Use RESTful APIs
If your business requires a high level of customization, you can directly call RESTful APIs. To directly call an API, you must include the signature calculation in your code. For more information, see PutObject.
