Parameter Description

Server-side Select whether to enable server-side encryption.

Encryption
• None: Server-side encryption is disabled.
• AES256: Objects are encrypted by using AES-256. OSS server-
side encryption uses AES-256 to encrypt objects with different
data keys. AES-256 uses master keys that are regularly rotated
to encrypt data keys.
• KMS: You can use a specified CMK ID or the default CMK stored
in KMS to encrypt or decrypt data. For more information about
KMS-based encryption, see Implement server-side encryption
with CMKs stored in KMS.

- alias/acs/oss: The default CMK stored in KMS is used to

encrypt different objects and decrypt the objects when they
are downloaded.
- CMK ID: The keys generated by a specified CMK are used
to encrypt different objects and the specified CMK ID is
recorded in the metadata of the encrypted object. Objects
are decrypted when they are downloaded by users who
have decryption permissions. Before specifying a CMK ID,
you must create a normal key or an external key in the same
region as the bucket in the KMS console. This feature is in
public preview. To obtain the related permissions, contact
technical support personnel.

Notice:

- Before using the KMS-based encryption, you must activate

KMS.
- You are charged for calling API operations when you use
