    oci os bucket create \ --namespace <namespace> \ --name <bucket name> \ --compartment-id <compartment id>

    For example:

    oci os bucket create \ --namespace "id732ljpics9" \ --name "OAG" \ --compartment-id "ocid1.compartment.oc1..aaaaaaaazixo6ywqdhtwetbymmw6gmrxbyaajc4aibnczaihsrfi6n5z7axq"
