File deletion

Google Cloud Storage bucket keeps a version of the file even though you delete the file. Is this for all the buckets or for buckets where you have enabled versioning?

Found the answer myself

Google Cloud Storage bucket keeps a version of the file if versioning is enabled on the bucket. Otherwise it doesn’t keep a version, it deletes the file completely.

Awesome Chandra, 

Glad you found the answer you were looking for, sorry we couldn’t get to you sooner. 

For reference to those who come along a little later here is a reference link to GCP’s Cloud Storage Object Versioning overview

Keep being awesome!
