Use Cases

You can use the following sample code to create a bucket in the specified region. The supported parameters are:

• Bucket: specify your full bucket name in the format of examplebucket-1250000000.
• Region: select the region where your bucket resides. Once the bucket is created, the region cannot be modified. For more information, see Regions and Access Domain Names supported by COS.
