A default retention period and retention mode can be configured on a bucket to be applied to objects created in that bucket. Independent of retention, an object can also be under legal hold. This effectively disallows all deletes of an object under legal hold until the legal hold is removed by an API call.

## Get Started

### 1. Prerequisites

# Automatic Site Replication

This feature allows multiple independent MinIO sites (or clusters) that are using the same external IDentity Provider (IDP) to be configured as replicas. In this situation the set of replica sites are referred to as peer sites or just sites. When site-replication is enabled on a set of sites, the following changes are replicated to all other sites:

- Creation and deletion of buckets and objects

### Setup MinIO with Identity Provider

Make sure we have followed the previous step and configured each software independently, once done we can now proceed to use MinIO STS API and MinIO server to use these credentials to perform object API operations.
