You can call the AppendObject operation to append content to existing appendable objects.
Usage notes
In this topic, the public endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. If you want to access Object Storage Service (OSS) by using other Alibaba Cloud services in the same region as OSS, use an internal endpoint. For more information about the regions and endpoints supported by OSS, see Regions and endpoints.
In this topic, an OSSClient instance is created by using an OSS endpoint. If you want to create an OSSClient instance by using custom domain names or Security Token Service (STS), see Initialization.
To use append upload, you must have the
oss:PutObjectpermission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.If the object to which you want to append content does not exist, the AppendObject operation creates an appendable object.
If the object to which you want to append content exists:
If the object is an appendable object and the specified position from which the append operation starts is equal to the current object size, the data is appended to the end of the object.
If the object is an appendable object and the specified position from which the append operation starts is not equal to the current object size, the PositionNotEqualToLength error is returned.
If the object is not an appendable object, the ObjectNotAppendable error is returned.
Upload data from the local memory by using append upload
The following sample code provides an example on how to upload data from the local memory to a specific bucket by using append upload:
#include "oss_api.h"
