Question: 7

Regarding Cloud Storage, which option allows any user to access to a Cloud Storage resource for a limited time, using a specific URL?

A. Open Buckets

B. Temporary Resources

C. Signed URLs

D. Temporary URLs

Answer: C

Explanation:

Signed URLs provide a way to give time-limited read or write access to anyone in possession of the URL, regardless of whether they have a Google account

In some scenarios, you might not want to require your users to have a Google account in order to access Cloud Storage, but you still want to control access using your application-specific logic. The typical way to address this use case is to provide a signed URL to a user, which gives the user read, write, or delete access to that resource for a limited time. Anyone who knows the URL can access the resource until the URL expires. You specify the expiration time in the query string to be signed.
