Object Storage Service:0002-00000224

Last Updated:Mar 28, 2025

Problem description

The value of the x-oss-credential field in the request is invalid.

Causes

You initiate a request that uses the V4 signature. However, the value of the x-oss-credential field in the request is invalid.

Examples

The following code provides an example:

GET /oss.jpg?x-oss-signature-verion=OSS4-HMAC-SHA256&x-oss-credential=AK**ID/2022-12-20/cn-hangzhou/oss/abc&x-oss-expires=1141889120&x-oss-additional-headers=host&x-oss-signature=8u**a3 HTTP/1.1
Host: oss-example.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com
Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2022 08:48:18 GMT

The x-oss-signature filed is required. It is used to specify the signature. The x-oss-signature field is in the following format: <AccessKeyId>/<SignDate>/<Region>/oss/aliyun_v4_request. In the preceding example, the value of the x-oss-credential field ends with invalid characters /abc.

Solutions

Replace /abc at the end of the value of the x-oss-credential field with /aliyun_v4_request. The following code provides a correct example:

GET /oss.jpg?x-oss-signature-verion=OSS4-HMAC-SHA256&x-oss-credential=LTAI****************/20221220/cn-hangzhou/oss/aliyun_v4_request&x-oss-expires=1141889120&x-oss-additional-headers=host&x-oss-signature=8u**a3 HTTP/1.1
Host: oss-example.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com

  • Calculate the signature:

    If the server returns a response that contains the StringToSign parameter, you must check whether the value of the StringToSign parameter on the server is the same as the string before calculation.
