3. Configure the bucket

Set the Bucket Name, Availability Zone, Storage Class, Access Control List (ACL), and enable or disable Bucket Versioning. Then, click the "Create" button.

The bucket name must be globally unique, meaning it cannot be the same as any other bucket that already exists in your project or any other project on the system.

There is no charge for creating a bucket. Costs are incurred only when you store data in the bucket and when that data is accessed.

4. Wait for the bucket creation to complete

After clicking "Create," the system will take a moment to create the bucket. Once it is created, the bucket's details will be displayed. Click "Close" to return to the Object Storage - Buckets page. You will see your new bucket listed, and you can immediately begin configuring its bucket policy and creating sub-users.
