How to manage bucket tags by using Java SDK - Object Storage Service

You can use the bucket tagging feature to classify and manage buckets. For example, you can specify that only buckets with specific tags are displayed when you call the ListBucket operation.

Usage notes

In this topic, the public endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. To access OSS from other Alibaba Cloud services in the same region, use an internal endpoint. For details about supported regions and endpoints, see Regions and endpoints.
In this topic, access credentials are obtained from environment variables. For more information about how to configure access credentials, see Configure access credentials.
In this topic, an OSSClient instance is created by using an OSS endpoint. If you want to create an OSSClient instance by using custom domain names or Security Token Service (STS), see Configuration examples for common scenarios.

Only the bucket owner and users who are granted the oss:PutBucketTagging permission can configure tags for buckets. If other users attempt to configure tags for buckets, the 403 Forbidden message that contains the AccessDenied error code is returned.
You can configure up to 20 tags (key-value pairs) for each bucket.
The key and value of a tag must be encoded in UTF-8.
The key can be up to 64 characters in length. It is case-sensitive and cannot be empty. The key cannot start with http://, https://, or Aliyun. These prefixes are not case-sensitive.
The value of a tag can be up to 128 characters in length and can be empty.

Set bucket tags

The following code provides an example of how to set tags for a bucket named examplebucket.

import com.aliyun.oss.*;
import com.aliyun.oss.common.auth.*;
import com.aliyun.oss.common.comm.SignVersion;
import com.aliyun.oss.model.SetBucketTaggingRequest;

public class Demo {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        // In this example, the endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. Specify the actual endpoint.
        String endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com";
        // Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are configured.
        EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider credentialsProvider = CredentialsProviderFactory.newEnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider();
        // Specify the bucket name. Example: examplebucket.
        String bucketName = "examplebucket";
        // Specify the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the region to cn-hangzhou.
        String region = "cn-hangzhou";

        // Create an OSSClient instance.
        // When the OSSClient instance is no longer in use, call the shutdown method to release the resources.
        ClientBuilderConfiguration clientBuilderConfiguration = new ClientBuilderConfiguration();
        clientBuilderConfiguration.setSignatureVersion(SignVersion.V4);

            SetBucketTaggingRequest request = new SetBucketTaggingRequest(bucketName);
            // Specify the key and value of a bucket tag. For example, set the key to owner and the value to John.
            request.setTag("owner", "John");
            request.setTag("location", "hangzhou");
            ossClient.setBucketTagging(request);
