EXAMPLES The following command creates a composite index with fields user_id (in descending order) followed by timestamp (in descending order) in the Events collection group. $ gcloud alpha firestore indexes composite create \ --collection-group=Events \ --field-config=field-path=user-id,order=descending \ --field-config=field-path=timestamp,order=descending REQUIRED FLAGS Collection group resource - Collection group of the index. This represents a Cloud resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways. To set the project attribute: ◆ provide the argument --collection-group on the command line with a fully specified name; ◆ set the property core/project; ◆ provide the argument --project on the command line. To set the database attribute: ◆ provide the argument --collection-group on the command line with a fully specified name; ◆ provide the argument [--database] on the command line (currently '(default)' is the only supported value).

To set the collection-group attribute: ▸ provide the argument --collection-group on the command line. --field-config=FIELD_CONFIG Configuration for a field. This flag must be repeated to provide the ordered list of field configurations comprising the composite index. For example: $ gcloud alpha firestore indexes composite create \ --collection-group=Events \ --field-config field-path=tags,array-config=contains \ --field-config field-path=user_id,order=descending \ --field-config field-path=timestamp,order=descending The following keys are allowed: field-path Specifies the field path (e.g. 'address.city'). This is required. order Specifies the order. Valid options are: 'ascending', 'descending'. Exactly one of order or array-config must be specified. array-config Specifies the configuration for an array field. The only valid option is 'contains'. Exactly one of 'order' or 'array-config' must be specified. OPTIONAL FLAGS --async Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete. GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.
