Use the ossutil cp command to upload local resources such as files, images, and videos to OSS. You can also use this command to upload large files.
Notes
To upload files, you must have the
oss:PutObject,oss:ListParts, andoss:AbortMultipartUploadpermissions. For more information, see Grant custom access policies to RAM users.Batch upload is supported only when the source is a folder.
Command format

--include | stringArray | The inclusion rules for paths or file names. Note For more information about filtering options, see Filtering options. |
--include-from | stringArray | Reads inclusion rules from a rule file. |
-j, --job | int | The number of concurrent tasks. The default value is 3. Note This parameter takes effect only when you specify the |
--listObjects | / | Uses the ListObjects API operation to list objects. |
--max-size | SizeSuffix | The maximum size of a file to transfer. The default unit is byte. You can also use suffixes such as B, K, M, G, T, or P. 1 K (KiB) = 1024 B. |
--metadata | strings | Specifies the user metadata of the object. Use the key=value format. |
--metadata-directive | string | Specifies how to set the metadata of the destination object. Valid values:
|
--metadata-exclude | stringArray | The exclusion rules for object metadata. |
--metadata-filter | stringArray | The filtering rules for object metadata. |
--metadata-filter-from | stringArray | Reads object metadata filtering rules from a rule file. |
--metadata-include | stringArray | The inclusion rules for object metadata. |
--min-age | Duration | Uploads only files modified before the specified time interval. The default unit is second. You can use a suffix for the unit. For example, 1h specifies 1 hour. Note
|
--max-age | Duration | Uploads only files modified within the specified time interval. The default unit is second. You can use a suffix for the unit. For example, 1h specifies 1 hour. Note
|
--min-mtime | Time | Uploads only files modified after the specified time. The time must be in UTC format. Example: 2006-01-02T15:04:05. Note
|
--max-mtime | Time | Uploads only files modified before the specified time. The time must be in UTC format. Example: 2006-01-02T15:04:05. |
--min-size | SizeSuffix | The minimum size of a file to transfer. The default unit is byte. You can also use suffixes such as B, K, M, G, T, or P. 1 K (KiB) = 1024 B. |
--no-progress | / | Does not display the progress bar. |
--page-size | int | The maximum number of objects to list per page during a batch upload. The default value is 1000. The value must be between 1 and 1000. |
--parallel | int | The number of concurrent tasks for operations on a single file. |
--part-size | SizeSuffix | The part size. By default, ossutil calculates an appropriate part size based on the file size. The value must be between 100 KiB and 5 GiB. |
-r, --recursive | / | Performs the operation recursively. If you specify this option, the command is run on all matching objects in the bucket. Otherwise, the command is run only on the object specified by the path. |
--request-payer | string | The payment method for the request. Set this parameter if you use the pay-by-requester mode. Valid value: requester. |
--size-only | / | Uploads only source files whose sizes are different from the destination files. |
--storage-class | string | The storage class of the object. Valid values:
|
--tagging | strings | Specifies the tags of the object. Use the key=value format. |
--tagging-directive | string | Specifies how to set the tags of the destination object. Valid values:
|
-u, --update | / | Uploads only source files that are newer than the destination files. |
--ignore-existing | / | Skips destination files that already exist. |
For more information, see Command-line options.
The naming conventions for destination objects are as follows:
When you upload a single file, if the prefix is empty, the object name is the file name.
When you upload a single file, if the prefix ends with a forward slash (/), the object name is prefix + file name.
When you perform a batch upload, if the prefix is empty, the object name is the relative path of the source file.
When you perform a batch upload, if the prefix ends with a forward slash (/), the object name is prefix + relative path of the source file.
When you perform a batch upload, if the prefix does not end with a forward slash (/), the object name is prefix + / + relative path of the source file.
The relative path of a source file is the name that follows the root directory. For example, when you run `cp /root/dir/ ...`, the relative path of the file `/root/dir/subdir/test.txt` is `subdir/test.txt`.
Usage examples
Upload a single file
Uploading a single file
Upload the local file examplefile.txt to the desfolder folder in the examplebucket bucket.
ossutil cp D:/localpath/examplefile.txt oss://examplebucket/desfolder/
Upload multiple files
Upload only the files in a folder
Upload the files from the local folder localfolder to the desfolder folder in the examplebucket bucket.
ossutil cp -r D:/localpath/localfolder/ oss://examplebucket/desfolder/Batch upload files that meet specific conditions
Upload all files in TXT format.
ossutil cp -r D:/localpath/localfolder/ oss://examplebucket/desfolder/ --include "*.txt"Use 10 concurrent tasks to batch upload files
ossutil cp -r D:/localpath/localfolder/ oss://examplebucket/desfolder/ -f -j 10
Limit the upload speed
Upload the local file upload.rar to the desfolder folder in the examplebucket bucket at a speed of 20 MB/s. The default unit is bytes per second (B/s).
ossutil cp D:/upload.rar oss://examplebucket/desfolder/ --bandwidth-limit 20971520Upload the local file file.rar to the desfolder folder in the examplebucket bucket and limit the upload speed to 50 MB/s. The unit is specified as megabytes per second (MB/s).
ossutil cp D:/file.rar oss://examplebucket/desfolder/ -r --bandwidth-limit 50M
