Static website in Yandex Object Storage using Terraform
To host a static website in Object Storage using Terraform:
If you no longer need the resources you created, delete them.
Prepare your cloud
Sign up for Yandex Cloud and create a billing account:
- Go to the management console
and log in to Yandex Cloud or create an account if you do not have one yet. - On the Yandex Cloud Billing
page, make sure you have a billing account linked and it has theACTIVE
orTRIAL_ACTIVE

The cost of hosting a static website includes:
- Fee for storing data for a static website (see Object Storage pricing).
- Fee for data operations (see Object Storage pricing).
- Fee for outgoing traffic from Yandex Cloud to the internet (see Object Storage pricing).
- Fee for public DNS queries and zones (see Yandex Cloud DNS pricing).
Create an infrastructure
Terraform
For more information about the provider resources, see the documentation on the Terraform
If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed.
To host a static website in Object Storage using Terraform:
-
Install Terraform, get the authentication credentials, and specify the source for installing the Yandex Cloud provider (see Configure a provider, step 1).
-
Prepare files with the infrastructure description:
Ready-made configurationManually- Create a directory for configuration files.
- Download the archive
(2 KB). - Unpack the archive to the directory. Now, the directory should contain the
static.tf
configuration file, as well as theindex.html
anderror.html
files.
- Create a directory for configuration files.
- In the directory, create:
-
static.tf
configuration file:static.tf

For more information about the parameters of resources used in Terraform, see the provider documentation:
-
In the
static.tf
file, underlocals
, set the user-defined parameters:token
: OAuth token (if you are using a Yandex account) or IAM token (if you are using a Yandex account or federated account) to access Yandex Cloud. The IAM token is valid for up to 12 hours but cannot exceed the federation cookie lifetime.cloud_id
: ID of the cloud to create resources in.folder_id
: ID of the folder to create resources in.
-
Create resources:
-
In the terminal, change to the folder where you edited the configuration file.
-
Make sure the configuration file is correct using the command:
terraform validate
If the configuration is correct, the following message is returned:
Success! The configuration is valid.
-
Run the command:
terraform plan
The terminal will display a list of resources with parameters. No changes are made at this step. If the configuration contains errors, Terraform will point them out.
-
Apply the configuration changes:
terraform apply
-
Confirm the changes: type
yes
in the terminal and press Enter.
-
After creating the infrastructure, check that the website is up and running.
Check that the website is running
To check that the website is running, use one of the standard Object Storage addresses:
http://<bucket_name>.website.yandexcloud.net
http://website.yandexcloud.net/<bucket_name>
If you configured your own domain for the website, use its address, e.g., http://www.example.com
.
How to delete the resources you created
To stop paying for the resources you created:
-
Open the
static.tf
configuration file and delete from it the description of the infrastructure you created. -
Apply the changes:
-
In the terminal, change to the folder where you edited the configuration file.
-
Make sure the configuration file is correct using the command:
terraform validate
