Shorthand Syntax:

JSON Syntax:

{
  "LocationConstraint": "EU"|"eu-west-1"|"us-west-1"|"us-west-2"|"ap-south-1"|"ap-southeast-1"|"ap-southeast-2"|"ap-northeast-1"|"sa-east-1"|"cn-north-1"|"eu-central-1"
}

--grant-full-control (string)

Allows grantee the read, write, read ACP, and write ACP permissions on the bucket.

--grant-read (string)

Allows grantee to list the objects in the bucket.

--grant-read-acp (string)

Allows grantee to read the bucket ACL.

--grant-write (string)

Allows grantee to create, overwrite, and delete any object in the bucket.

--grant-write-acp (string)

Allows grantee to write the ACL for the applicable bucket.

--object-lock-enabled-for-bucket | --no-object-lock-enabled-for-bucket (Boolean)

Specifies whether to enable Amazon S3 object lock for the new bucket.

--cli-input-json (string)

Operates a service or services based on the provided JSON string. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values override the JSON-provided values. You cannot pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value, because the string is taken literally.

Examples¶

The following command creates a bucket named “my-bucket”:

$ aws s3api create-bucket --bucket my-bucket --region us-east-1

Output:

{
    "Location": "/my-bucket"
}

The following command creates a bucket named “my-bucket” in the eu-west-1 region. Regions outside of us-east-1 require the appropriate LocationConstraint to be specified in order to create the bucket in the desired region:

$ aws s3api create-bucket --bucket my-bucket --region eu-west-1 --create-bucket-configuration LocationConstraint=eu-west-1

Output:

{
    "Location": "http://my-bucket.s3.example.com/"
}

Output¶

Location -> (string)
