Handling /_ah/start and /_ah/stop requests on App Engine

Question

How should I handle /_ah/start and /_ah/stop requests? Right now they're just getting 404s. Also, why is it that sometimes the start and stop are 10 minutes apart and sometimes 1 minute apart? app.yaml looks like this: instance_class: B4_1G basic_scaling: max_instances: 11 idle_timeout: 60m Run code snippetExpand snippet App Engine logs JavaScript questions and answers, JavaScript questions pdf, JavaScript question bank, JavaScript questions and answers pdf, mcq on JavaScript pdf, JavaScript questions and solutions, JavaScript mcq Test , Interview JavaScript questions, JavaScript Questions for Interview, JavaScript MCQ (Multiple Choice Questions)

Answer 1

You can handle your requests with, using Express, something like app.get('/_ah/start', (req, res) => { //rest of the code As for the why the difference in time between the requests, it depends on the usage of your app. You receive requests to /_ah/start when there is the need to start a new instance, and to /_ah/stop for restarting/stopping
