I am newbie at cloud servers and I've opened a google cloud server but when I try to share the file with others I get the following URL: https://storage.googleapis.com
So my questions is how to use a sub domain instead of the URL shown above EX: cloud.mydomain.com
Thank You!

You've got three major options.
Option 1: Create a bucket named "cloud.mydomain.com", then create a CNAME DNS record redirecting traffic to that domain to GCS. Pros: simpler setup. Documentation: Hosting a Static Webservice
Option 2: Set up a Google Cloud Load Balancer that services that domain, and configure it to serve content from a GCS bucket that you own. Pros: more customizable, can serve other content from same domain. Cons: Alpha. Documentation: HTTP(S) Load Balancing with Google Cloud Storage.
Option 3: Just serve from storage.googleapis.com. It's easy and works fine for many use cases. You can also use mybucketname.storage.googleapis.com.
