NameError name nitesh1995 is not defined Error while creating a bucket

Question

I am getting this error

NameError: name 'nitesh1995' is not defined

I am using BOTO3 with python for creating a S3 bucket.

import boto3
s3_resource = boto3.resource('s3')
s3_resource.create_bucket(Bucket= nitesh1995)

This is code I am using. Can someone help please?

Hello @nitesh,

You are getting the error because when you pass the name of the bucket it is string. Here in your program it is not treated as string. 

import boto3
s3_resource = boto3.resource('s3')
s3_resource.create_bucket(Bucket= 'anikets3bucket')

Use the name within the quotes to mark it as string.

Hope this helps!
