How to access firestore.Timestamp from Firebase Cloud Function

Question

We are in the middle of converting our Firestore Date object to the new Timestamp Objects

We have done so successfully on the front end by importing firestore

Answer 1

With the release of V2.0 of Firebase Functions is looks like they've added Timestamp support in the Firebase Admin SDK package.

Have a look at the official docs here.

import { firestore } from 'firebase-admin';
...
const now = firestore.Timestamp.now()
