Bucket Policy Configuration

Bucket Policy is used to manage access control for a bucket by defining who can access it and what actions they can perform. It allows secure and fine-grained permission management without changing the bucket’s public visibility. By creating a bucket policy, specific users or the public can be granted limited access such as read-only or download permissions. This ensures better security and controlled usage of object storage resources.

Creating an Access Policy

  1. From the left sidebar menu, navigate to Policies.

  2. Click on the + Create Policy button.

Access Policies Dashboard

The policy creation process follows a simple 4-step wizard:

Step 1: Grantee

Choose who should get access to your bucket. You can grant access to:

  • Public: Anyone on the internet.

  • Subuser: A specific team member.

After selecting the grantee, choose the Region from the dropdown menu and select the specific subuser if applicable.

Select Grantee - Public
Select Grantee - Subuser

Step 2: Bucket and scope

Select the specific bucket you want to apply this access policy to.

Select Bucket

Next, define the Access scope:

  • Entire bucket: Access all objects within the selected bucket.

  • Specific folders: Restrict access to specific paths within the bucket.

Select Access Scope

Step 3: Permissions

Choose the specific actions that are allowed or denied for the grantee. You can select individual Object operations (e.g., Download files, View file tags) or Bucket operations.

Select Permissions

Step 4: Review

Review the details of your policy setup, including the Grantee, Bucket, and Permissions.

  • Select the Effect: Choose Allow to grant the permissions or Deny to explicitly restrict them.

  • (Optional) Enter a Policy name for easier identification later.

Click Create access policy to finalize and apply the rules.

Managing Policies

After successful creation, your new policy will appear in the Access Policies list. From here, you can view, edit, or delete existing policies.

Active Access Policy List

Delete a Bucket policy: To delete a policy, navigate to the Policies section, locate the policy you want to remove, and select the delete option from the actions menu. This removes all custom access rules defined in that policy.
