You can configure a Referer whitelist or a Referer blacklist and specify whether to allow a request with an empty Referer for an Object Storage Service (OSS) bucket to prevent unauthorized access to resources in the bucket and unexpected traffic fees.
Usage notes
Before you configure hotlink protection, make sure that you familiarize yourself with this feature. For more information, see Hotlink protection.
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 Create an OSSClient instance.
To configure hotlink protection, you must have the
oss:PutBucketReferer
permission. To query hotlink protection configurations, you must have theoss:GetBucketReferer
permission. For more information, see Attach a custom policy to a RAM user.
Configure hotlink protection for a bucket
The following sample code provides an example on how to configure hotlink protection for a bucket:
import com.aliyun.oss.ClientException;
import com.aliyun.oss.OSS;
import com.aliyun.oss.common.auth.*;
import com.aliyun.oss.OSSClientBuilder;
import com.aliyun.oss.OSSException;
import com.aliyun.oss.model.BucketReferer;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class Demo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
// In this example, the endpoint of the China (Hangzhou) region is used. Specify your actual endpoint.
String endpoint = "https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com";
// Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are configured.
EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider credentialsProvider = CredentialsProviderFactory.newEnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider();
// Specify the name of the source bucket. Example: examplebucket.
String bucketName = "examplebucket";
// Specify the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the region to cn-hangzhou.
String region = "cn-hangzhou";
// Create an OSSClient instance.
ClientBuilderConfiguration clientBuilderConfiguration = new ClientBuilderConfiguration();

BucketReferer br = new BucketReferer(true, refererList);
ossClient.setBucketReferer(bucketName, br);
} catch (OSSException oe) {
System.out.println("Caught an OSSException, which means your request made it to OSS, "
+ "but was rejected with an error response for some reason.");

System.out.println("Request ID:" + oe.getRequestId());
System.out.println("Host ID:" + oe.getHostId());

Query the hotlink configurations of a bucket
The following sample code provides an example on how to query the hotlink configurations of a bucket:
