# Modify settings for a Google Cloud Firestore subclient

After you add a Google Cloud Firestore subclient, you can modify its settings to change the backup plan, change the SLA, and modify the backup content.

## Go to the subclient

1. From the Command Center navigation pane, go to Protect > AI & Analytics.

2. Click the Google Cloud Firestore configuration.

3. On the Subclients tab, click the subclient.

## Configure subclient-specific settings

Use these settings to control how Google Cloud Firestore backups run for the subclient.

- Backup plan: Select a different backup plan after you configure backups for Google Cloud Firestore. The new backup plan must be created on Commvault Air Gap Storage.

- Exclude application from SLA calculations: Enable this option to exclude this subclient from SLA reporting.

### Content settings

To modify the collections included in the backup:

1. Click the pencil (edit) icon next to Content.

2. Choose either:

   - Select specific collections: Browse the tree and select individual collections to protect.

   - Define rules: Use content rules to select collections dynamically. The special value "ALL" discovers all collections at backup time. Tag-based discovery is supported to automatically include or exclude collections matching GCP resource tag criteria.

Top-level collections are displayed in the browse tree. Sub-collections are included automatically by the Firestore export API but are not shown individually in the UI.

### Granular mode

Enable Granular mode to perform one export operation per collection, allowing per-collection restore granularity. When disabled (default), all selected collections are exported in a single operation.

## Save changes

1. Review your changes.

2. Click Save.

Changes to the backup plan and content settings apply to the next scheduled backup.
