To select the source bucket and create a replication rule, either: - Click ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-1698327400423.png) for the desired bucket on the Buckets list. Select **Replicate Bucket** on the drop-down menu. Continue with Step 2. - Click to select the bucket on the Buckets list. Click ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-N3N05UVF.png) to open Settings. Click the **Object Replication** tab. If there are no existing replication jobs, you will see: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-8QQ13Y35.png) If there are existing jobs, you will see a listing such as: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-1VYR4NR8.png) Click **Create Replication Rule**. 2. The Create Replication Rule panel is displayed, showing the Source Bucket and the region where it was created. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-I6HPDAD3.png) Click one of the Replication Type options: - **Rule + Batch Job**—All new and existing objects from the source bucket will be replicated in the destination bucket. This is a “live replication.” - **Rule**—Only new objects from the source bucket will be replicated in the destination bucket. This is a "batch replication." 3. For the Object Selection, choose to replicate: - **All objects in the bucket** - **A subset of objects in the bucket**—With this option, you can add a prefix to filter objects that will be copied from the source bucket. In the following example, only objects in the source bucket that have a name that begins with the text, **schematic**, will be copied to the destination bucket. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-PLPVN58X.png) In addition, you can add object tags on which to filter objects to be replicated. Click the pencil icon ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-09SL8J4N.png) and then refer to [Object Tags](https://docs.wasabi.com/docs/object-tags) for instructions on adding a tag. > If you apply tags, you will not be able to select the **Sync deleted objects** advanced option (described in the next step). If you specify both a prefix and object tag(s), all conditions must be met for the source bucket object to be copied to the destination bucket. In the following example, only objects in the source bucket that meet the following conditions will be replicated: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-VB83N3S0.png) - The object name begins with **schematic** AND - The object has tags of **line: arrowhead** and **release: 101**. 4. In the Advanced Options section, you can select **Sync deleted objects**, which indicates that objects deleted in the source bucket will also be deleted in the destination bucket. > You cannot select the **Sync deleted objects** advanced option if you applied object tags to filter. 5. Click **Next**. 6. For the Replication Destination, click **Replicate to a bucket within this account**. This enables you to replicate objects across different buckets in the same account. (For the **Replicate to a bucket in another account** option, refer to [Object Replication Across Different Accounts](https://docs.wasabi.com/docs/cross-account-replication). Bucket-level cross-account replication enables you to utilize resources in different buckets across Wasabi account(s) for your web applications.) 7. Enter a name for the replication rule. The rule is **ComponentReplication01** in this example: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-D2PR6GG9.png) 8. Select the destination bucket. When you click in the Destination Bucket area, you are prompted with a list of buckets that match the criteria for a destination (the same versioning status and region grouping as the source). For example: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-IV516K9H.png) Click on a bucket as the destination. Notice that the active bucket (widget-schematics) is in red because it is the source for the replication. And, the source cannot be the same as the destination bucket. 9. Click **Select**. 10. Click **Next**. 11. Review the Replication Rule definition. For example: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-0KY7DSA9.png) 12. You can click **Back** to make changes. Or click **Create**. The Replication Rules panel will appear similar to: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-28VDEOF7.png) ## Reviewing the Replication Job Panel and Managing Jobs Refer to [Object Replication: Managing a Job](https://docs.wasabi.com/docs/object-replication-managing-a-job).
