Hi,

You cannot implement custom health checks in Google App Engine (GAE) 
Standard Environment. Our public documentation shows that adding legacy and 
updated health checks you are referring to is possible in Custom Runtime 
apps (i.e. GAE Flex apps) by configuring the app.yaml file [1]. This is an 
advantage of switching to GAE Flex.

For App Engine Standard, which doesn't afford you that flexibility, 
hardware and software failures that cause early termination or frequent 
restarts can occur without prior warning. This sometimes manifests as a 
non-responsive instance, returning HTTP status 500. We advised that you 
construct your GAE Standard apps to be able to handle this [2]. And you can 
reference this documentation for configuring your app.yaml file for your 
GAE app's app.yaml.
