Object Storage Service:describe-regions

Last Updated:Sep 22, 2024

The command describe-regions is used to query the endpoints of all supported regions or a specific region, including public endpoints, internal endpoints, and acceleration endpoints.

Usage notes

  • By default, an Alibaba Cloud account has the permissions to query the endpoints of all supported regions or a specific region. Making query requests as a RAM user or by using Security Token Service (STS) requires oss:DescribeRegions permissions. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.

  • Requests initiated by calling the DescribeRegions operation can only contain second-level domains, such as oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com.
