I have copied a file in bucket folder and then tried to removed it using "gsutil rm gs://storage-lab-cli2210/README-cloudshell.txt" but if I do a list with "a" the file is not there.
Here is the output:
gcpuser2211@cloudshell:~ (my-user-2-project)$ gsutil ls -a gs://storage-lab-cli2210
gs://storage-lab-cli2210/IMG_20181127_020638_550.jpg#1545223532822336

Hello, Amit! I’m glad you got past the blocking billing issue. 🙂👍
For this situation, are you sure that you’ve successfully turned on versioning for this bucket? If you run gsutil versioning get gs://storage-lab-cli2210, does it show Suspended or Enabled? Timecode @7:35 in the video linked to this question has a demo of this.
If versioning is turned off, the file will simply be deleted. But if versioning is turned on, then the file should still show up with the gsutil ls -a gs://storage-lab-cli2210 command.
Cheers!

Hello Mattias: Thanks for helping me out on billing issue, I really appreciate it. I now remember you showed the versioning part in your video and I think i totally lost to enable it. Sorry for the false alarm. I followed the video again and now the things are working as expected. Thanks again for your time and detailed explanation. Cheers! —Amit J
No problem. Glad to help again. 🙂
