mc anonymous set-json
Syntax
The mc anonymous set-json command sets anonymous (i.e. unauthenticated or public) access policies for a bucket using using an IAM JSON policy document.
Buckets with anonymous policies allow clients to access the bucket contents and perform actions consistent with the specified policy without authentication.
The following command applies the JSON-formatted anonymous policy to the mydata bucket on the myminio MinIO deployment:
mc anonymous set-json ~/mydata-anonymous.json myminio/mydata
The command has the following syntax:
mc [GLOBALFLAGS] set-json POLICY ALIAS
- Brackets
[]indicate optional parameters. - Parameters sharing a line are mutually dependent.
- Parameters separated using the pipe
|operator are mutually exclusive.
Copy the example to a text editor and modify as-needed before running the command in the terminal/shell.
Parameters

This command supports any of the global flags.

Behavior
S3 Compatibility
The mc commandline tool is built for compatibility with the AWS S3 API and is tested with MinIO and AWS S3 for expected functionality and behavior.
MinIO provides no guarantees for other S3-compatible services, as their S3 API implementation is unknown and therefore unsupported. While mc commands may work as documented, any such usage is at your own risk.
