  • On step 1 of the form, define the name of your bucket (we like to use our company name here)
  • Pick the region you need (think about GDPR rules, if you're an EU company)

You can keep default options on step 2 and finally confirm your Bucket creation on step 3.

And that's one good thing done, your Wasabi bucket is created!
