Authorizing Sub-account Read-only Access to Files in Specific Directory

Last updated: 2024-09-30 16:59:45

Under the corporate account CompanyExample (with ownerUin as 12345678 and appId as 1250000000), there is a sub-account named Developer. This sub-account requires read permissions for the files in the dir1 directory of the Bucket1 storage bucket in the Shanghai region of CompanyExample's COS service.

Solution A:

1. Create a policy through policy syntax.
{
"version": "2.0",
"statement":[
{
"effect": "allow",
"action": [
"cos:List*",
"cos:Get*",
"cos:Head*",
"cos:OptionsObject"
],
"resource": "qcs::cos:ap-shanghai:uid/1250000000:Bucket1-1250000000/dir1/*"
}
]
}
2. Grant this policy to the sub-account. For the authorization method, please see Authorization Management.

Solution B:

Setting up Policy and ACL through the COS console. For specifics, please see COS Product Documentation.
