Is there a Google Search API console or browser? - google-app-engine

Is there a Google Search API console or a way to browse the indexes and documents stored in them? I can't seem to find it in the Google Cloud Console or anywhere else.

You can find it under App Engine:
https://console.cloud.google.com/appengine/search?project=your_project_id

Firestore full-text search

I'm migrating an app from GAE/J Datastore to Cloud Firestore. The app uses GAE Full Text Search service. The Firestore docs recommend using Algolia/ElasticSearch for full-text search.
Is there anything that prevents using the search service with Firestore? Why is the docs recommending external search services esp. Google being known for search
Thanks
There's nothing that prevents you from using Cloud Firestore and the App Engine Search API together; it's just also possible to use Cloud Firestore outside of App Engine, so we don't want to constrain users to any particular environment.

Google cloud datastore API cannot find project when App Engine application is disabled

I'm trying to connect and get data from Google Cloud Datastore API.
After disabling my App Engine Application (which have no use for me at the moment), I cannot access any GC Datastore API methods.
When I send my request, I always get the following response:
{ [Error: The project [my-project] does not exist.] code: 404, metadata: Metadata { _internal_repr: {} } }
I've already double-checked this and my project name is correct.
Accessing the google cloud console, I noticed that the datastore dashboard also show the same message:
Then, after enabling the app engine application again, everything works.
I know that GC Datastore was initially created to work with App Engine, but since last year it was supposed to be available everywhere (according to this).
Someone have a tip about this issue? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
The Google Cloud Datastore API currently requires that the associated App Engine application not be disabled.
I've filed https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-datastore/issues/107 to track this. It's something we may be able to fix in the future.

Google App Engine Custom Admin Pages in the New Google Cloud Console

I'm a Google App Engine user, and I got this message saying the old app engine console will be retired by the end of March.
However - as it seems, there is no place in the Google Cloud Console (which is supposed to be the only available console to manage App Engine projects) to access and use the custom admin pages used to manage the project.
Does anyone know what is up with that?
Thanks,

View all requests on Google Cloud Console?

I just started using Google Cloud Console.
Even without creating any instance either on Compute Engine or App Engine, I see few request received by Google on my project. I am guessing these are the calls made by Google to set up my project. Found them on the main project homepage.
Is there a way for me to see all requests Google received for my project?
Thanks!
For Google Compute Engine, you can access them by going to "Operations". You can click on the Operation to get details about it.

Google App Engine - Google APIs Console - Google Cloud Console

I wanted to ask what the difference between Google App Engine, Google APIs Console and Google Cloud Console is?
I will deploy a Project which will fetch some Websites and provide the data to my Android Application.
What is the best to use? I do not know what is for what.
Google App Engine lets you run web applications on Google's infrastructure : https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/whatisgoogleappengine
Google APIs Console is Console to administrate Google API (deprecated)
Google Cloud Console is new version of Google APIs Console.
So for your Project use Google App Engine.
And for example use URL Fetch https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/urlfetch/
A bit of background: At one point in time, Google APIs had its own console and Google App Engine had its own console. Eventually, it was decided that we should merge these two consoles into one console. We've already turned down the APIs console, and we're working on turning down the App Engine admin console.
So to answer your question: you should use the Cloud console unless you need to use the App Engine admin console for some obscure reason.
