CORS - Object Storage Service - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center

Due to the same-origin policy of browsers, cross-origin requests may be rejected when data is exchanged or resources are shared between different domain names. To resolve the issue, you can configure cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) rules. In the CORS rules, you can specify the domain names from which requests can be sent, the methods that can be used to send cross-origin requests, and the allowed headers.

Usage notes

In this topic, the public endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. If you want to access OSS from other Alibaba Cloud services in the same region as OSS, use an internal endpoint. For more information about OSS regions and endpoints, see Regions, endpoints and open ports.
In this topic, access credentials are obtained from environment variables. For more information about how to configure access credentials, see Configure access credentials.
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 configure CORS rules, you must have the oss:PutBucketCors permission. To query CORS rules, you must have the oss:GetBucketCors permission. To delete CORS rules, you must have the oss:DeleteBucketCors permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.

Configure CORS rules

The following sample code provides an example on how to configure a CORS rule for a specific bucket:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider
from oss2.models import BucketCors, CorsRule

# Obtain access credentials from the environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that you have configured environment variables OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET. 
auth = oss2.ProviderAuthV4(EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider())

# Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com. 
endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com"
# Specify the ID of the region that maps to the endpoint. Example: cn-hangzhou. This parameter is required if you use the signature algorithm V4.
region = "cn-hangzhou"

# Specify the name of your bucket.
bucket = oss2.Bucket(auth, endpoint, "yourBucketName", region=region)


rule = CorsRule(allowed_origins=['*'],
                allowed_methods=['GET', 'HEAD'],
                allowed_headers=['*'],
                max_age_seconds=1000)

# An existing rule with the same name is overwritten. 
bucket.put_bucket_cors(BucketCors([rule]))

Query CORS rules

The following sample code provides an example on how to query CORS rules of a specific bucket:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider

# Obtain access credentials from the environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that you have configured environment variables OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET. 
auth = oss2.ProviderAuthV4(EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider())

# Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com. 
endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com"
# Specify the ID of the region that maps to the endpoint. Example: cn-hangzhou. This parameter is required if you use the signature algorithm V4.
region = "cn-hangzhou"

# Specify the name of your bucket.
bucket = oss2.Bucket(auth, endpoint, "yourBucketName", region=region)

try:
    cors = bucket.get_bucket_cors()
except oss2.exceptions.NoSuchCors:
    print('cors is not set')
else:
    for rule in cors.rules:
        print('AllowedOrigins={0}'.format(rule.allowed_origins))
        print('AllowedMethods={0}'.format(rule.allowed_methods))
        print('AllowedHeaders={0}'.format(rule.allowed_headers))
        print('ExposeHeaders={0}'.format(rule.expose_headers))
        print('MaxAgeSeconds={0}'.format(rule.max_age_seconds))

Delete CORS rules

The following sample code provides an example on how to delete all CORS rules of a specific bucket:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider

# Obtain access credentials from the environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that you have configured environment variables OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET. 
auth = oss2.ProviderAuthV4(EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider())

# Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com. 
endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com"
# Specify the ID of the region that maps to the endpoint. Example: cn-hangzhou. This parameter is required if you use the signature algorithm V4.
region = "cn-hangzhou"

# Specify the name of your bucket.
bucket = oss2.Bucket(auth, endpoint, "yourBucketName", region=region)

bucket.delete_bucket_cors()
