Public URLs For Objects In Bluemix Object Storage Service

Question

I would like to upload a number of photos to the Bluemix Object Storage service and then display them in a web app. Right now a GET request to the photo in the object stora

Answer 1

The correct way to do this is to modify the container ACL. You cannot do this via the Bluemix UI currently but you can using the Swift REST API. For example, to change the container ACL so anyone can read objects in the container you can issue the following PUT request.

curl -X PUT "https://dal.objectstorage.open.softlayer.com/v1/AUTH_123/mycontainer" \
    -H "X-Auth-Token: token123" \
    -H "X-Container-Read: .r:*"
