After I created the bucket and uploaded some files I tried sending the link to an object to another computer and I was able to view the object. I was running in a new Incognito window on a different computer. Should this work like this?
On the Object details page it gave me a link URL of
https://storage.cloud.google.com/storage-lab-55387/README-cloudshell.txt?organizationId=0
When use that link on a different computer in a new Incognito window It does prompt me for a Google ID before showing me the file.
However, if I try the link on the computer where I uploaded the file with an authorized browser window I see that it translates the link into this:
If I send this link to another computer, I am able to view the object without being prompted for authorization.
is this how it is supposed to work?

Same here, tried in edge browser with a link from my GCP bucket. I´m suspecting that the tokenized link has an expiration time, and it´s not limited by cookies or IP addresses.
I will try this again in a while and see if it loses its public access.
I tried this a day later using the full URL and now I get an error
{"error":{"errors":[{"domain":"global","reason":"lockedDomainExpired","message":"Locked Domain Expired"}],"code":401,"message":"Locked Domain Expired"}}
