[Google-Cloud-Run] Connect to datastore from Cloud Run

[Ridha El Bekri]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there was a way to connect to datastore (firestore in datastore mode) from cloud run with a python client SDK in the same way its achieved for a simple GCE instance.
Thank you in advance for your help and answers.

Hello Ridha, 

Indeed, you cannot connect to Datastore from Cloud Run, but this should not be viewed as a show stopper: you can connect to the feature-rich service Firestore, and have similar functionality, and more.
