Editing an Object Storage Data Retention Rule

Update a retention rule for an Object Storage bucket.

You can get the retention rule's ID by running the list command. See Listing Object Storage Data Retention Rules.

1. On the Buckets list page, select the Object Storage bucket that you want to work with. If you need help finding the list page or the bucket, see Listing Buckets.
2. On the details page, select Policies and find the Retention rules section.
3. From the Actions menu for the data retention rule you want, select Edit rule.
  The Edit retention rule panel opens.
4. Update the settings as needed. Avoid entering confidential information. For descriptions of the settings, see Creating a Retention Rule.
5. Select Update.

Use the oci os retention-rule update command and required parameters to edit a retention rule for a bucket:

oci os retention-rule update --bucket-name bucket_name --retention-rule-id retention_rule_id [OPTIONS]

For example:

oci os retention-rule update --bucket-name MyBucket --retention-rule-id b1a6c84c-57c4-416c-b006-f864b0904c9e --time-amount 6 --time-unit years --time-rule-locked "2020-04-30 00:00"
{
  "data": {
    "display-name": "RegulatoryCompliance",
    "duration": {
      "time-amount": 6,
      "time-unit": "YEARS"
    },
    "etag": "700ada5c-6a2a-4c6c-acb6-4ebb173e0f8f",
    "id": "b1a6c84c-57c4-416c-b006-f864b0904c9e",
    "time-created": "2020-03-25T15:11:44.423000+00:00",
    "time-modified": "2020-03-25T15:46:28.724000+00:00",
    "time-rule-locked": "2020-04-30T00:00:00+00:00"
  },
  "etag": "700ada5c-6a2a-4c6c-acb6-4ebb173e0f8f"
}

In this example, the retention rule has been updated to include values for time-amount, time-unit, and time-rule-locked.
