Upcoming changes to Cloud Functions for Firebase

Upcoming changes to Cloud Functions for Firebase

+Two upcoming changes to Cloud Functions for Firebase:
1. All Firebase developers who use the Cloud Functions Node.js 10 runtime will need to use the “Blaze” pay-as-you-go billing plan.

2. The Node.js 10 runtime on Cloud Function has now reached General Availability and the Node.js 8 runtime on Cloud Functions will be deprecated.

To avoid potential disruptions or security risks, you should update your functions to Node.js 10.


These changes for Cloud Functions for Firebase will follow this timeline:

> By June 22, 2020, all developers using the Node.js 10 runtime will need to update to the “Blaze” pay-as-you-go billing plan and enable the Cloud Build API in order to continue deploying functions.

> By February 15, 2021, all developers using the Node.js 8 runtime should update to the Node.js 10 runtime and update to the “Blaze” pay-as-you-go billing plan.

Developers will no longer be able to create new functions or update existing functions that use Node.js 8.

> By March 15, 2021, Node.js 8 runtime will be shut down for Cloud Functions for Firebase. Functions using Node.js 8 will be disabled after this date.


What do I need to do?

> By June 22, 2020, all developers using the Node.js 10 runtime will need to update to the “Blaze” pay-as-you-go billing plan.

> By February 15, 2021, all developers using the Node.js 8 runtime should update to the Node.js 10 runtime and update to the “Blaze” pay-as-you-go billing plan, referred to in the point above.
