Create new buckets

You can create a bucket from the Cloudflare dashboard or using Wrangler.

Create a bucket with the r2 bucket create command:

wrangler r2 bucket create your-bucket-name

List buckets in the current account with the r2 bucket list command:

wrangler r2 bucket list

To delete a bucket, you must first empty it and then delete it. For detailed instructions, refer to Delete buckets.

• Bucket names and buckets are not public by default. To allow public access to a bucket, refer to Public buckets.
• For information on controlling access to your R2 bucket with Cloudflare Access, refer to Protect an R2 Bucket with Cloudflare Access.
• Invalid (unauthorized) access attempts to private buckets do not incur R2 operations charges against that bucket. Refer to the R2 pricing FAQ to understand what operations are billed vs. not billed.
