Tell me what is included in the string parameter and what is "gs: //"?

StorageReference storageRef = storage.getReferenceFromUrl("gs://<your-bucket-name>");

The very first line of code in the Firebase documentation https://firebase.google.com/docs/storage/android/create-reference

    gs:// is just a scheme, analogous to http:// , ftp:// etc. In this case, I think, it doesn't matter what it means.

    In your case, as described in the dock on your link, you need to go to the console, to the project you need, to the storage tab and copy the address specified there like gs://АДРЕС_ПРОЕКТА.appspot.com

    Here is the screen:
