Issue description

The X-Amz-Credential request parameter is missing.

Causes

You initiated a request that uses an Amazon S3-compatible V4 signature, but the X-Amz-Credential request parameter is missing.

Examples

You initiated a request to include the signature in the URL request parameters, but the X-Amz-Credential request parameter is missing.

GET /test.txt?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Date=20221220T084818Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=ab2s******************** HTTP/1.0
Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2022 08:48:18 GMT
Host: oss-example.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com
x-oss-s3-compat: true

Solutions

Make sure that the URL parameters are complete and that valid values are specified for the parameters. The X-Amz-Credential parameter must be in the following format: <YOUR-AKID>/YYYYMMDD/REGION/SERVICE/aws4_request. The following code provides an example on how to correctly specify the URL parameters:

GET /test.txt?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=LTAI****************/20221220/us-east-1/s3/aws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20221220T084818Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=ab2s******************** HTTP/1.0
