Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
constraints/gcp.resourceLocations
The organization policy constraint gcp.resourceLocations restricts the locations where resources can be created. By setting this constraint with a list of allowed locations (e.g., europe-west1), new buckets can only be created in those regions.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

constraints/storage.uniformBucketLevelAccess
Why it's wrong here
This enforces uniform bucket-level access, not location restrictions.

Why it's wrong here
This requires OS Login for Compute Engine, unrelated to bucket location.
