NAME
    gcloud alpha storage objects describe - describe a Cloud Storage object

SYNOPSIS
    gcloud alpha storage objects describe URL
        [--additional-headers=HEADER=VALUE] [--fetch-encrypted-object-hashes]
        [--raw] [--soft-deleted] [--decryption-keys=[DECRYPTION_KEY,...]]
        [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    (ALPHA) Describe a Cloud Storage object.

EXAMPLES
    Describe a Google Cloud Storage object with the url
    "gs://bucket/my-object":

        $ gcloud alpha storage objects describe gs://bucket/my-object

    Describe object with JSON formatting, only returning the "name" key:

        $ gcloud alpha storage objects describe gs://bucket/my-object \
            --format="json(name)"

    Describe only contexts attached to objects as key value pairs.

        $ gcloud alpha storage objects describe gs://my-bucket/object \
            --format=contextsonly

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
     URL
        Specifies URL of object to describe.

FLAGS
     --additional-headers=HEADER=VALUE
        Includes arbitrary headers in storage API calls. Accepts a comma
        separated list of key=value pairs, e.g. header1=value1,header2=value2.
        Overrides the default storage/additional_headers property value for
        this command invocation.

     --fetch-encrypted-object-hashes
        If the initial GET request returns an object encrypted with a
        customer-supplied encryption key, the hash fields will be null. If the
        matching decryption key is present on the system, this flag retries the
        GET request with the key.

     --raw
        Shows metadata in the format returned by the API instead of
        standardizing it.

     --soft-deleted
        Displays soft-deleted resources only. For objects, it will exclude live
        and noncurrent ones.

ENCRYPTION FLAGS
     --decryption-keys=[DECRYPTION_KEY,...]
        A comma-separated list of customer-supplied encryption keys (RFC 4648
        section 4 base64-encoded AES256 strings) that will be used to decrypt
        Cloud Storage objects. Data encrypted with a customer-managed
        encryption key (CMEK) is decrypted automatically, so CMEKs do not need
        to be listed here.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
    These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account,
    --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format,
    --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet,
    --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

    Run $ gcloud help for details.

NOTES
    This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this
    command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct
    project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early
    access allowlist. This variant is also available:

        $ gcloud storage objects describe
