What is UPDATE_NOOP in firestore?

We created a dashboard for Firestore operations on stackdriver.
We got CREATE, UPDATE and UPDATE_NOOP as the operations done in document writes metric.

I couldn't understand what does UPDATE_NOOP signifies.

Solution

  • This is now documented here: https://cloud.google.com/firestore/docs/billing-questions

    No-op writes. Operations that do not result in a change to the database, such as an update that does not change field values or a write to a deleted document may show in the usage dashboard as UPDATE_NOOP or DELETE_NOOP. Even though they show as NOOP, they still contribute to billed operations.
