Fields
Union field consistency_type. For Cloud Firestore in Datastore mode, if you don't specify read_consistency then all lookups and queries default to read_consistency=STRONG. Note that, in Cloud Datastore, global queries defaulted to read_consistency=EVENTUAL.
Explicitly setting read_consistency=EVENTUAL will result in eventually consistent lookups and queries. consistency_type can be only one of the following:
Reads entities as they were at the given time. This value is only supported for Cloud Firestore in Datastore mode.
This must be a microsecond precision timestamp within the past one hour, or if Point-in-Time Recovery is enabled, can additionally be a whole minute timestamp within the past 7 days.
Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and uses 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted.Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z", "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30".
