Has anyone accessed Google Firestore (a noSQL DB) from PB? I see there's a C# API available so I guess it should be possible to import that into PB and use it, but I'm concerned about whether there are non-async versions of functions, since I am not aware of how PowerScript can handle async function calls. 

I don't want to write an app that customers use that uses Firestore instead of a SQL DB, but my business  is writing a separate web app that uses Firestore as its DB, which some of the users of our PB app may way to convert to eventually. One way would be for a PB app to be able to read the existing SQL DB's data and write it directly to Firestore. Of course there are other options, like exporting to JSON and then using a more native Firestore approach (like a web app) to load that JSON and write it Firestore. 

Thanks.
