- The binding name of the namespace is defined in the Wrangler file under the `durable_objects.bindings.name` key. Note that the binding name may not uniquely identify a namespace. Instead, each namespace has a unique namespace ID, which you can view from the Cloudflare dashboard.
- You can instantiate a unique Durable Object within a namespace using [Durable Object namespace methods](/durable-objects/api/namespace/#methods).
