Cloud Run Billing: Unauthenticated Traffic

[ageoff]

Hi, if I have a cloud run container setup to reject Unauthenticated requests: 

If an unauthenticated request comes in... am I billed at all for that? I see when I hit the `run.app` endpoint I see the invocations in the metrics on the cloud run.

Yes, you are billed for all traffic to your Cloud Run service. To avoid budget overruns, you can cap your expenses by using the "max instances" feature in Cloud Run.

An even better way is to use the budget feature: https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/budgets
