Firestore Trigger Not Supported in Region nam7

[krambono]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to deploy a Cloud Function triggered by Firestore, but I'm getting the following error:

Request to https://cloudfunctions.googleapis.com/v2/projects/PROJECT-ID/locations/us-central1/functions?functionId=onDocumentCreated had HTTP Error: 400, Trigger region 'nam7' is not supported.

My Firestore database is located in the nam7 region, and it seems that Firestore triggers are not yet supported there.

Is support for the nam7 region on the roadmap for Firestore triggers?

It would be nice if this limitation were clearly mentioned in the documentation to help avoid confusion.

Thanks in advance for any guidance or updates!

Hi @krambono ,

You're right — Firestore triggers are not currently supported in the nam7 multi-region (used by default for Firestore in production mode).
try this:

• Workaround: Use Firestore in a regional location like us-central1, where triggers are fully supported.

• Unfortunately, you can’t move a Firestore database to a different region once it's created — you’d need a new project.

• No public timeline from Google yet on nam7 support for triggers.

Yes, the limitation should be more clearly documented.

Hi @krambono,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

If feasible, consider deploying your Firestore database in a supported region like nam5 to enable trigger functionality. Also, keep an eye on the Firestore release notes for any updates regarding support for nam7.
