# Creating a Storage Lens group
Create a Storage Lens group

The following examples demonstrate how to create an Amazon S3 Storage Lens group by using the Amazon S3 console, AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), and AWS SDK for Java.

## Using the S3 console


**To create a Storage Lens group**

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon S3 console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/).

1. In the navigation bar on the top of the page, choose the name of the currently displayed AWS Region. Next, choose the Region that you want to switch to. 

1. In the left navigation pane, choose **Storage Lens groups**.

1. Choose **Create Storage Lens group**.

1. Under **General**, view your **Home Region** and enter your **Storage Lens group name**.

1. Under **Scope**, choose the filter that you want to apply to your Storage Lens group. To apply multiple filters, choose your filters, and then choose the **AND** or **OR** logical operator.
   + For the **Prefixes** filter, choose **Prefixes**, and enter a prefix string. To add multiple prefixes, choose **Add prefix**. To remove a prefix, choose **Remove** next to the prefix that you want to remove.
   + For the **Object tags** filter, choose **Object tags**, and enter the key-value pair for your object. Then, choose **Add tag**. To remove a tag, choose **Remove** next to the tag that you want to remove.
   + For the **Suffixes** filter, choose **Suffixes**, and enter a suffix string. To add multiple suffixes, choose **Add suffix**. To remove a suffix, choose **Remove** next to the suffix that you want to remove.
   + For the **Age** filter, specify the object age range in days. Choose **Specify minimum object age**, and enter the minimum object age. Then, choose **Specify maximum object age**, and enter the maximum object age.
   + For the **Size** filter, specify the object size range and unit of measurement. Choose **Specify minimum object size**, and enter the minimum object size. Choose **Specify maximum object size**, and enter the maximum object size.

1. (Optional) For AWS resource tags, add the key-value pair, and then choose **Add tag**.

1. Choose **Create Storage Lens group**.

## Using the AWS CLI


The following example AWS CLI command creates a Storage Lens group. To use this example command, replace the `user input placeholders` with your own information.

```
aws s3control create-storage-lens-group --account-id 111122223333 \ 
--region us-east-1 --storage-lens-group=file://./marketing-department.json
```

The following example AWS CLI command creates a Storage Lens group with two AWS resource tags. To use this example command, replace the `user input placeholders` with your own information.

```
aws s3control create-storage-lens-group --account-id 111122223333 \ 
--region us-east-1 --storage-lens-group=file://./marketing-department.json \
--tags Key=k1,Value=v1 Key=k2,Value=v2
```

For example JSON configurations, see [Storage Lens groups configuration](storage-lens-groups.md#storage-lens-groups-configuration).

## Using the AWS SDK for Java


The following AWS SDK for Java example creates a Storage Lens group. To use this example, replace the `user input placeholders` with your own information.

**Example – Create a Storage Lens group with a single filter**  
The following example creates a Storage Lens group named `Marketing-Department`. This group has an object age filter that specifies the age range as `30` to `90` days. To use this example, replace the `user input placeholders` with your own information.  

```

        try {
            StorageLensGroupFilter objectAgeFilter = StorageLensGroupFilter.builder()
                    .matchObjectAge(MatchObjectAge.builder()
                            .daysGreaterThan(30)
                            .daysLessThan(90)
                            .build())
                    .build();

            StorageLensGroup storageLensGroup = StorageLensGroup.builder()
                    .name(storageLensGroupName)
                    .filter(objectAgeFilter)
                    .build();

            CreateStorageLensGroupRequest createStorageLensGroupRequest = CreateStorageLensGroupRequest.builder()
                    .storageLensGroup(storageLensGroup)
                    .accountId(accountId).build();

            S3ControlClient s3ControlClient = S3ControlClient.builder()
                    .region(Region.US_WEST_2)
                    .credentialsProvider(ProfileCredentialsProvider.create())
                    .build();
            s3ControlClient.createStorageLensGroup(createStorageLensGroupRequest);
        } catch (AmazonServiceException e) {
            // The call was transmitted successfully, but Amazon S3 couldn't process
            // it and returned an error response.
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (SdkClientException e) {
            // Amazon S3 couldn't be contacted for a response, or the client
            // couldn't parse the response from Amazon S3.
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}
```

**Example – Create a Storage Lens group with an `AND` operator that includes multiple filters**  
The following example creates a Storage Lens group named `Marketing-Department`. This group uses the `AND` operator to indicate that objects must match **all** of the filter conditions. To use this example, replace the `user input placeholders` with your own information.

        } catch (AmazonServiceException e) {

        }
    }
}
```

**Example – Create a Storage Lens group with an `OR` operator that includes multiple filters**  
The following example creates a Storage Lens group named `Marketing-Department`. This group uses an `OR` operator to apply a prefix filter (`prefix-1`, `prefix-2`, `prefix3/sub-prefix-1`) or an object size filter with a size range between `1000` bytes and `6000` bytes. To use this example, replace the `user input placeholders` with your own information.
