Exporting Firestore Cloud Data with Datastore Exporting & Importing?

I noticed a new feature of Datastore in Beta, Export and Import Services .

As far as I understand, Firestore works in Datastore under the hood. Can I also use this new Export and Import feature for Firestore?

If not, is there a function designed to create custom backups and restore them to a (other) project?

Update: Managed export and import are available .

There is currently no import / export service for Cloud Firestore. We are working on this, it is at the top of the list of what we need to do before we can discard the “Beta” label.

You are correct that Firestore uses the same technology as Datastore, but the two databases do not match, so you cannot use regular export of data from Datastore.

At the moment, it is best to write your own import / export scripts using the Java, Go, Node.js or Python SDK.
