You can find all of the answers to your questions in the Automatic Upgrade to Cloud Firestore <https://cloud.google.com/datastore/docs/upgrade-to-firestore> documentation and provided video <https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=13&v=SYG-BgXoJFQ>. As noted in blue on that page: "You cannot manually upgrade an existing Cloud Datastore database to Cloud Firestore in Datastore mode.". This will be done automatically for you once Firestore is out of Beta.
- If you are looking to use native Cloud Firestore (by following the Get started with Cloud Firestore <https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/quickstart> steps), you are required to create a new project that does not have a Cloud Datastore created. This is because Cloud Datastore and native Cloud Firestore are not compatible, since Cloud Firestore is the next generation of Cloud Datastore. They therefore cannot exists together in the same project, and you can only use one or the other. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
