Firebase Storage is using 490 MB, but no bucket has been initialized. I am not able to track where this storage com from, but it is quite strange to check that Firebase is charging 0.10 USD for an empty Storage.

Where can I delete this storage and why firebase is charging for having no buckets?

Currently I am using Firebase Authentication, Firestore, Realtime Database, Hosting and Functions.

Every time you deploy to Cloud Functions, it takes some space in a new storage bucket. This is covered in the documentation FAQ about Cloud Functions billing for node 10.

You can delete those files over time if you want.

My recommendation is to use object lifecycles in the artifacts storage bucket! that way the files deletion is automated.

Follow this documentation: https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/lifecycle

(Firebase should be the one responsible for creating this rule!)
