// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
// scope "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform"

// In this example, Get Google Cloud Storage OAuth2 Access Token, 
// the service account access token was saved to a text file.  This example fetches the access token from the file..

// curl -X DELETE -H "Authorization: Bearer [OAUTH2_TOKEN]" \
//     "https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b/[BUCKET_NAME]"
//
