Properties
The default value for event-based hold on newly created objects in this bucket. Event-based hold is a way to retain objects indefinitely until an event occurs, signified by the hold's release. After being released, such objects will be subject to bucket-level retention (if any). One sample use case of this flag is for banks to hold loan documents for at least 3 years after loan is paid in full. Here, bucket-level retention is 3 years and the event is loan being paid in full. In this example, these objects will be held intact for any number of years until the event has occurred (event-based hold on the object is released) and then 3 more years after that. That means retention duration of the objects begins from the moment event-based hold transitioned from true to false. Objects under event-based hold cannot be deleted, overwritten or archived until the hold is removed.
The bucket's retention policy. The retention policy enforces a minimum retention time for all objects contained in the bucket, based on their creation time. Any attempt to overwrite or delete objects younger than the retention period will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED error. An unlocked retention policy can be modified or removed from the bucket via a storage.buckets.update operation. A locked retention policy cannot be removed or shortened in duration for the lifetime of the bucket. Attempting to remove or decrease period of a locked retention policy will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED error.
The bucket's default storage class, used whenever no storageClass is specified for a newly-created object. This defines how objects in the bucket are stored and determines the SLA and the cost of storage. Values include MULTI_REGIONAL, REGIONAL, STANDARD, NEARLINE, COLDLINE, ARCHIVE, and DURABLE_REDUCED_AVAILABILITY. If this value is not specified when the bucket is created, it will default to STANDARD. For more information, see storage classes.
