To use Object Storage Service (OSS) SDK for Go to initiate a request, you must configure access credentials. Alibaba Cloud services use access credentials to verify your identity information and access permissions. You can select different types of access credentials based on the requirements for authentication and authorization. This topic describes how to configure temporary access credentials and long-term access credentials.
Prerequisites
OSS SDK for Go is installed. For more information, see Installation.
Access credentials
You can choose from the following types of access credentials:
Temporary access credentials: For scenarios that require high security, such as temporary access authorization of applications to access OSS, we recommend that you use temporary access credentials. Temporary access credentials have a validity period for access. This helps prevent access credentials from being leaked. Temporary access credentials support fine-grained access control to prevent security risks caused by excessive permissions. For more information, see Use temporary access credentials.
Long-term access credentials: To ensure security, we recommend that you do not use long-term access credentials. For scenarios that require convenience, long-term access credentials can prevent multiple refreshes in a long period of time. We recommend that you change your long-term access credentials every three months to ensure the security of your Alibaba Cloud account. When long-term access credentials are leaked or no longer used, you can delete or disable the long-term access credentials to prevent security risks. For more information, see Use long-term access credentials.
Use temporary access credentials
If you want to use OSS SDK for Go to temporarily access OSS resources, you can use one of the following methods to configure temporary access credentials:
Configure Security Token Service (STS) temporary access credentials: If you want to access OSS within a specific period of time, you can use STS to obtain temporary access credentials. The temporary access credentials provided by STS do not disclose the AccessKey pair of your RAM user. This ensures that your access to OSS resources is secure.
Configure a RAM role: If you want to grant a RAM user of your Alibaba Cloud account or a RAM user of another Alibaba Cloud account the permissions to access OSS resources, you can configure a RAM role for the RAM user.
Configure a RAM role for an Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance: If you want to access OSS resources from an ECS instance, you can use a RAM role of the ECS instance to access OSS resources. You can attach a RAM role to an ECS instance to access OSS resources from the instance by using temporary credentials that are obtained from STS. STS temporary access credentials are automatically generated and updated. Applications can obtain STS temporary access credentials by using the instance metadata URL.
Configure STS temporary access credentials
Create a RAM user.
For more information, see Create a RAM user.
Attach the
AliyunSTSAssumeRoleAccess
policy to the RAM user.For more information, see Grant permissions to RAM users.
Use the RAM user to call the AssumeRole operation of STS to obtain temporary access credentials.
For more information, see AssumeRole.
Configure the temporary access credentials provided by STS.
Environment variables
Use the temporary access credentials provided by STS to configure environment variables.
macOS
Open the terminal.
Run the following command:
nano ~/.bash_profile
Add the temporary access credentials (AccessKeyId, AccessKeySecret, and SecurityToken) obtained from STS to the end of the file.
