Cloud Storage object enrichments and extended-data object contexts in Preview

Object enrichments is now available in Preview. When you configure object enrichments, Cloud Storage applies Google's pre-trained machine learning models to eligible images and PDF documents in your buckets and attaches the resulting metadata to your objects as object contexts. You can inspect enrichments on individual objects or query them at scale in BigQuery by using Storage Insights datasets. For more information, see About object enrichments and Configure object enrichments.

Object contexts with extended data are available in Preview. Google services attach these contexts to your objects during automated analysis, such as machine learning labeling. To retrieve a context and its extended data, use the viewFullContext JSON API method.

Storage Insights datasets include the Object Contexts Catalog view (object_contexts_catalog_view), which you can use to analyze object contexts in BigQuery. For more information, see Object contexts catalog and Analyze object contexts.
