Charged for App Engine when not using

Hi,

I checked billing and saw that I was being charged for App Engine. I have not set up or used App Engine - I am only using Firestore, Cloud Translations API (thru the Firestore Cloud Translations extension) and Firebase Cloud Functions. Can someone explain why I am being charged for App Engine specifically? Thanks!

Hi @Antony123,

Welcome to the Google Cloud Community!

The reason why you have App engine usage is probably from your Firestore.

Take a look at the App Engine Requirement. Previously, all Firestore databases were linked to an App Engine app. When linked, your database requires an active App Engine app in the same project. Without the active App Engine app, read and write access to the database is disabled.

To unlink, follow Unlinking your Database from App Engine

You can also contact Google Cloud Support to further look into your case. Let me know if it helped, thanks!
