Use uniform bucket-level access

Overview

This page shows you how to enable, disable, and check the status of uniform bucket-level access on a bucket in Cloud Storage.

Required roles

To get the permissions that you need to set and manage uniform bucket-level access on a bucket, ask your administrator to grant you the Storage Admin (roles/storage.admin) role on the bucket. This predefined role contains the permissions required to set and manage uniform bucket-level access. To see the exact permissions that are required, expand the Required permissions section:

Required permissions

  • storage.buckets.get
  • storage.buckets.list
    • This permission is only required if you plan on using the Google Cloud console to perform the instructions on this page.
  • storage.buckets.update

You might also be able to get these permissions with custom roles.

For information about granting roles on buckets, see Use IAM with buckets.

Check for ACL usage

Before you enable uniform bucket-level access, use Cloud Monitoring to ensure your bucket is not using ACLs for any workflows. For more information, see Check object ACL usage.

Console

To view the metrics for a monitored resource by using the Metrics Explorer, do the following:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the  Metrics explorer page:

    Go to Metrics explorer

    If you use the search bar to find this page, then select the result whose subheading is Monitoring.

  2. In the Metric element, expand the Select a metric menu, enter ACLs usage in the filter bar, and then use the submenus to select a specific resource type and metric:
    1. In the Active resources menu, select GCS Bucket.
    2. In the Active metric categories menu, select Authz.
    3. In the Active metrics menu, select ACLs usage.
    4. Click Apply.
    The fully qualified name for this metric is storage.googleapis.com/authz/acl_operations_count..
  3. Configure how the data is viewed. For example, to view your data by the ACL operation, for the Aggregation element, set the first menu to Sum and the second menu to acl_operation.

    For more information about configuring a chart, see Select metrics when using Metrics Explorer.

See storage for a complete list of metrics available for Cloud Storage. For information about time series, see Metrics, time series, and resources.

JSON API

  1. Have gcloud CLI installed and initialized, which lets you generate an access token for the Authorization header.

  2. Use cURL to call the Monitoring JSON API:

    curl \
    'https://monitoring.googleapis.com/v3/projects/PROJECT_ID/timeSeries?filter=metric.type%20%3D%20%22storage.googleapis.com%2Fauthz%2Facl_operations_count%22&interval.endTime=END_TIME&interval.startTime=START_TIME' \
    --header 'Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)' \
    --header 'Accept: application/json'

    Where:

    • PROJECT_ID is the project ID or number for which you want to view ACL usage. For example, my-project.
    • END_TIME is the end of the time range for which you want to view ACL usage. For example, 2019-11-02T15:01:23.045123456Z.
    • START_TIME is the start of the time range for which you want to view ACL usage. For example, 2016-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z.

If the request returns an empty object {}, there is no recent ACL usage for your project.

Set uniform bucket-level access

To enable or disable uniform bucket-level access on your bucket, complete the following instructions:

Console

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Cloud Storage Buckets page.

    Go to Buckets

  2. In the list of buckets, click the name of the bucket for which you want to enable or disable uniform bucket-level access.

  3. Select the Permissions tab near the top of the page.

  4. In the field named Access Control, click the Switch to link.

  5. In the menu that appears, select Uniform or Fine-grained.

  6. Click Save.

To learn how to get detailed error information about failed Cloud Storage operations in the Google Cloud console, see Troubleshooting.

Command line

Use the gcloud storage buckets update command:

gcloud storage buckets update gs://BUCKET_NAME --STATE

Where:

  • BUCKET_NAME is the name of the relevant bucket. For example, my-bucket.
  • STATE is either uniform-bucket-level-access to enable uniform bucket-level access or no-uniform-bucket-level-access to disable it.

Client libraries

[](gcs::Client client, std::string const& bucket_name) {
  gcs::BucketIamConfiguration configuration;
  configuration.uniform_bucket_level_access =

  StatusOr<gcs::BucketMetadata> updated = client.PatchBucket(
      bucket_name, gcs::BucketMetadataPatchBuilder().SetIamConfiguration(
                       std::move(configuration)));
  if (!updated) throw std::move(updated).status();

  std::cout << "Successfully enabled Uniform Bucket Level Access on bucket "
            << updated->name() << "\n";

  bucket.uniform_bucket_level_access = false

  puts "Uniform bucket-level access was disabled for #{bucket_name}."
end

REST APIs

JSON API

  1. Have gcloud CLI installed and initialized, which lets you generate an access token for the Authorization header.

  2. Create a JSON file that contains the following information:

    {
      "iamConfiguration": {
          "uniformBucketLevelAccess": {
            "enabled": STATE
          }
      }
    }

    Where STATE is either true or false.

  3. Use cURL to call the JSON API with a PATCH Bucket request:

    curl -X PATCH --data-binary @JSON_FILE_NAME \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    "https://storage.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b/BUCKET_NAME?fields=iamConfiguration"

    Where:

    • JSON_FILE_NAME is the path for the file that you created in Step 2.
    • BUCKET_NAME is the name of the relevant bucket. For example, my-bucket.

XML API

The XML API cannot be used to work with uniform bucket-level access. Use one of the other Cloud Storage tools, such as the gcloud CLI, instead.

View uniform bucket-level access status

Console

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Cloud Storage Buckets page.

    Go to Buckets

  2. Click the name of the bucket whose status you want to view.

  3. Click the Configuration tab.

    The uniform bucket-level access status for the bucket is found in the Access control field.

To learn how to get detailed error information about failed Cloud Storage operations in the Google Cloud console, see Troubleshooting.

Command line

Use the gcloud storage buckets describe command with the --format flag:

gcloud storage buckets describe gs://BUCKET_NAME --format="default(uniform_bucket_level_access)"

Where BUCKET_NAME is the name of the relevant bucket. For example, my-bucket.

If successful, the response looks like:

uniform_bucket_level_access: true

REST APIs

JSON API

  1. Have gcloud CLI installed and initialized, which lets you generate an access token for the Authorization header.

  2. Use cURL to call the JSON API with a GET Bucket request that includes the desired fields:

    curl -X GET -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
    "https://storage.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b/BUCKET_NAME?fields=iamConfiguration"

    Where BUCKET_NAME is the name of the relevant bucket. For example, my-bucket.

    If the bucket has uniform bucket-level access enabled, the response looks like the following example:

    {
      "iamConfiguration": {
          "uniformBucketLevelAccess": {
            "enabled": true,
            "lockedTime": "LOCK_DATE"
          }
        }
      }

XML API

The XML API cannot be used to work with uniform bucket-level access. Use one of the other Cloud Storage tools, such as the gcloud CLI, instead.
