Load big file from Google Cloud Storage into Google Cloud Functions?

Viewed 3043

Is there a way to load big files (>100MB) from Google Cloud Storage into Google Cloud Functions? I read in their quotas that the "Max event size for background functions" is limited to 10MB. Can I read it chunk-wise or something like that?

Many thanks.

Cloud Functions for Storage are triggered with the metadata for the file, which is relatively small and won't hit the max-event-side limit.

To access the actual contents of the file, you'll use the node.js package for Cloud Storage, which is not affected by the 10MB limit.
