Connecting MongoDB with GCP

[Gregory_Desprez (Grégory Desprez)]

Hello there,

I have a new question regarding this project.
Since I work a lot with GCP for my actual job, I would like to host my app using GCP products as much as possible.
I would like to know if’s possible to interact with a MongoDB M0 cluster from GCP Cloud Function ?
If it is possible, do you have any tutorial available ?
Thank you in advance.

Hope this helps. Feel free to reach out for anything else as well.
