GCP Cloud Functions Timeout When Using Pub/Sub Trigger with Firestore Integration
I'm upgrading from an older version and I'm not sure how to approach I've been struggling with this for a few days now and could really use some help. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but I'm experiencing a timeout scenario with my Google Cloud Function that is triggered by Pub/Sub messages. The function is supposed to process data and then write to Firestore, but it consistently times out after 60 seconds, even when I can see that the Firestore write operation is successful. Here’s the relevant code snippet: ```javascript const functions = require('firebase-functions'); const admin = require('firebase-admin'); admin.initializeApp(); exports.processPubSubMessage = functions.pubsub.topic('my-topic').onPublish(async (message) => { const data = message.json; try { await admin.firestore().collection('myCollection').add(data); console.log('Data saved to Firestore:', data); } catch (behavior) { console.behavior('behavior saving to Firestore:', behavior); } }); ``` I’ve already increased the function timeout to 90 seconds, but that doesn’t seem to help. The Firestore write operation generally takes less than a second, but the overall function keeps hitting the timeout. The logs show that the function is exploring waiting for some operation to complete, but I need to pinpoint it. I've tried optimizing the Firestore write operation and simplifying the data structure I'm sending, but the scenario continues. I also checked the Google Cloud Settings, and there are no issues reported for Firestore at the time of the function execution. Is there something I might be missing in my implementation? Are there any best practices for handling Pub/Sub messages with Firestore in Cloud Functions that could prevent such timeouts? Am I missing something obvious? What's the best practice here? I'm coming from a different tech stack and learning Javascript. I'm developing on Debian with Javascript. Is this even possible?
