Object Storage Service (OSS) allows you to classify and manage buckets by using bucket tags. For example, you can add tags to buckets to identify their purposes and specify an access control list (ACL) for buckets that contain specific tags.
Usage notes
- Only the bucket owner and the 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 for a bucket.
- The key and value of a tag must be encoded in UTF-8.
- The key can be up to 64 characters in length and is case-sensitive. The key cannot be left empty. The key cannot start with
http://
,https://
, orAliyun
(case-insensitive). - The value of a tag can be up to 128 characters in length and can be left empty.
Scenarios
If you have a large number of buckets, you can classify the buckets based on tags and configure RAM policies to authorize specific users to manage the buckets that have specific tags. For example, you can configure the following RAM policies to authorize User A (UID: 193248792425xxxx) to list the buckets that have the key1:value1 tag:
{
"Version": "1",
"Statement": [
{
"Action": [
"oss:ListBuckets"
],
"Resource": [
"acs:oss:*:193248792425xxxx:*"
],
"Effect": "Allow",
"Condition": {
"StringEquals": {
"oss:BucketTag/key1": "value1"
}
}
}
]
}
You can also authorize User A to perform other operations on buckets by specifying the action element, such as writing data to buckets that have specific tags and querying information about these buckets. For more information about the action element that is supported by RAM policies, see Overview.
Use the OSS console
- Log on to the OSS console.
- In the left-side navigation pane, click Buckets. On the Buckets page, click the name of the desired bucket.
- In the left-side navigation tree, choose .
- On the Bucket Tagging page, click Create Tag and enter the key and value of the tag. To add multiple tags to the bucket, click the + icon.
- Click Save.
Use OSS SDKs
The following sample code provides examples on how to configure tags for a bucket by using OSS SDKs for common programming languages. For more information about how to configure tags for a bucket by using OSS SDKs for other programming languages, see Overview.

Use ossutil
For more information about how to configure tags for a bucket by using ossutil, see Add tags to a bucket or modify the tags of a bucket.
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 PutBucketTags.
