Google Cloud release notes

You can now use dry run mode to simulate storage batch operations jobs without modifying or deleting data. Dry run helps you to validate your job configuration before running the actual operation.

To learn how to configure a dry run job, see Create and manage batch operations jobs.

When you bulk restore soft-deleted objects, you can restore objects that were live at a specific time. You can also choose the objects to restore based on the object creation time.
