Step 1 — Create an R2 bucket
In Cloudflare dashboard → R2 → Create Bucket. Choose a name and location hint (optional).

The R2 endpoint follows this pattern:

In Storage → Add Destination, select S3-Compatible and fill in: your bucket name, any region string (e.g. auto), Access Key ID, Secret Access Key, and the endpoint URL from step 3.
