Configuration Steps

1

Create Bucket

In your Wasabi console:
  1. On the Wasabi menu, click Buckets
  2. In the upper right of the Console panel, click Create Bucket
  3. Enter a unique DNS-compliant bucket name (e.g., your-app-storage)
  4. Select the region where you want the bucket to reside
  5. Click Create Bucket to create immediately, or click Next to configure additional properties
  6. If continuing with setup, review bucket properties (versioning, logging, replication, tags) and click Create Bucket
Bucket names must be globally unique across all Wasabi accounts. Names must be 3-63 characters long, begin with a lowercase letter or number, and consist of lowercase letters, numbers, periods, and/or dashes. Cannot contain underscores, end with a dash, have consecutive periods, or use dashes adjacent to periods.

Create Access Keys

Generate API credentials:
  1. Follow the steps in Creating a User Account and Access Key
  2. Create a new user account or use an existing one
  3. Generate access keys for the user
  4. Copy the Access Key and Secret Key
  5. Save credentials securely
Access keys provide full access to your Wasabi account. Store them securely.
3

Configure CORS

Set up CORS for your domain:
  1. Go to your bucket settings
  2. Click Permissions tab
  3. Scroll to CORS Configuration
  4. Click Edit button
  5. In the JSON editor, configure the CORS policy:
[
  {
    "AllowedOrigins": [
      "https://yourdomain.com",
      "https://www.yourdomain.com"
    ],
    "AllowedMethods": [
      "GET"
    ],
    "AllowedHeaders": [
      "*"
    ],
    "MaxAgeSeconds": 3000
  }
]
  1. Click Save
Wasabi uses JSON format for CORS configuration. Wasabi automatically provides CORS headers when an Origin header is present in requests, but you can also configure custom CORS policies for more specific control. For detailed CORS configuration, refer to the official Wasabi CORS documentation. Replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain.
The CORS policy uses JSON format in Wasabi. Make sure your JSON syntax is valid before saving.
