## What Is Workers KV?
Global key-value storage on Cloudflare edge:
- Eventually consistent
- Low latency worldwide
- 1GB+ values supported
- TTL expiration
- Metadata support
---
## Quick Start (5 Minutes)
### 1. Create KV Namespace
```bash
bunx wrangler kv namespace create MY_NAMESPACE
bunx wrangler kv namespace create MY_NAMESPACE --preview
```
### 2. Configure Binding
```jsonc
{
"name": "my-worker",
"main": "src/index.ts",
"compatibility_date": "2025-10-11",
"kv_namespaces": [
{
"binding": "MY_NAMESPACE",
"id": "<PRODUCTION_ID>",
"preview_id": "<PREVIEW_ID>"
}
]
}
```
### 3. Basic Operations
```typescript
export default {
async fetch(request, env, ctx) {
// Write
await env.MY_NAMESPACE.put('key', 'value');
// Read
const value = await env.MY_NAMESPACE.get('key');
// Delete
await env.MY_NAMESPACE.delete('key');
return new Response(value);
}
};
```
**Load `references/setup-guide.md` for complete setup.**

## KV API Methods
### put() - Write
```typescript
// Basic
await env.MY_NAMESPACE.put('key', 'value');
// With TTL (1 hour)
await env.MY_NAMESPACE.put('key', 'value', {
expirationTtl: 3600
});
// With expiration timestamp
await env.MY_NAMESPACE.put('key', 'value', {
expiration: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) + 3600
});
// With metadata
await env.MY_NAMESPACE.put('key', 'value', {
metadata: { role: 'admin', created: Date.now() }
});
```
### get() - Read
```typescript
// Simple get
const value = await env.MY_NAMESPACE.get('key');
// With type
const text = await env.MY_NAMESPACE.get('key', 'text');
const json = await env.MY_NAMESPACE.get('key', 'json');
const buffer = await env.MY_NAMESPACE.get('key', 'arrayBuffer');
const stream = await env.MY_NAMESPACE.get('key', 'stream');
// With metadata
const { value, metadata } = await env.MY_NAMESPACE.getWithMetadata('key');
```
