About Cloud File Viewer

🚀 Cloud File Viewer - Effortless Google Cloud Storage File Access Cloud File Viewer is a Chrome extension that lets you preview files stored in Google Cloud Storage (GCS) directly from the Cloud Console without downloading them. Built for developers, data engineers, and cloud professionals who spend their day in GCS buckets. If you have the Storage Object Viewer role, you can preview the file. ✨ What's New (2.0.3) • 💬 Feedback - tell me what you still do by hand on GCS, straight from the popup. Parquet support is the most requested thing so far. • ✍️ Clearer listing and a more accurate privacy statement: everything stays on your device, nothing is ever sent anywhere. 🔹 Key Features • ⚡ Instant preview for CSV, JSON, plain text, log files, and gzip archives • 📁 Quick access to your recent buckets • 🔍 Search inside large files without downloading them • 📊 Weekly usage stats - files opened, buckets used, bandwidth saved • 🔗 Works right inside the Cloud Console object browser, no separate GCS browser to learn and no API key to paste • 🩺 Status indicator so you know the extension is working on the page 🚀 Why Use Cloud File Viewer? ✔ Stop downloading a 200 MB log file just to read the first 20 lines ✔ Save bandwidth and time - only the chunk you're reading is fetched ✔ Works on your private buckets, using your existing Google session ✔ 🔒 Everything stays on your device. No account, no tracking, no server - your bucket names and file paths are never sent anywhere. 📥 Install Cloud File Viewer and stop downloading files you only wanted to peek at.
