Hi @mhvharsha,

As mentioned in your other post, you can connect Firestore to a private service through Private Service Connect (PSC). Here are the key steps:

1. Set up PSC for Firestore: Create a PSC endpoint for Firestore, ensuring it's in the same network as your VM.
2. Configure VPC Peering: Enable Private Google Access for your VPC network.
3. Adjust Firewall Rules: Allow traffic from your VM to Firestore through the private connection.
4. Configure Python Service: In your Dockerized Python service, use the Firestore SDK to connect to the internal Firestore IP or endpoint.
