CreateBucket Method

Creates a new bucket.

Syntax

public string CreateBucket(string bucketName, string kind);
Public Function CreateBucket(ByVal BucketName As String, ByVal Kind As String) As String

Remarks

This method creates a new bucket named BucketName of the specified Kind. Valid values for Kind are allPrivate (default if empty) and allPublic. Each account may have up to 100 buckets.

The value passed for BucketName must comply with the following restrictions:

  • Must be between 6 and 50 characters long (inclusive).
  • Must consist solely of letters, digits, and hyphens (-).
  • Cannot start with the string b2-.
  • Must be globally unique (i.e., no two accounts may have a bucket with the same name) when compared case-insensitively.

If any items are present in the Metadata collection, they will also be included in the request and applied to the newly-created bucket. Keep in mind that the server enforces a limit of 10 metadata items per bucket.

The currently-authenticated application key must have the writeBuckets capability to call this method successfully, otherwise the server will return an error. Refer to the Account.Capabilities field for more information.
