How HumDay uses it
- You describe the outcome. Not this operation by name — what you want to happen. HumDay works out which operations it needs.
- The contract names it. Before anything is built, you see exactly which Google Cloud Firestore operations the program may use, and this is one of them.
- You approve access. Read-only access is still yours to grant, and still limited to what the contract needs.

Questions
- Can HumDay lists the field configuration and metadata for this database in Google Cloud Firestore?
- Yes. This operation is published in Google Cloud Firestore's own API description, so HumDay can use it without a hand-built connector — once you have approved it for your automation.
- Does this change anything in my Google Cloud Firestore account?
- No. This is a read-only operation, so it can be used to watch for changes or fetch data without altering anything in Google Cloud Firestore.
- Do I need to write code?
- No. You describe the outcome you want in plain words. HumDay agrees a contract with you, writes the program, and shows you a proof run before anything touches your Google Cloud Firestore account.
