Developing in Kotlin: Overview

With Cloud Functions, you can run applications written in Kotlin.

You can connect the SDK library to the runtime to work with the Yandex Cloud API. For more information about how to use the SDK, see Using the SDK.

When creating a function version, the builder will automatically install all declared dependencies required for the function to run. To learn more about the requirements for declaring dependencies, see Building and managing Kotlin function dependencies.

The runtime environment automatically loads your code and invokes the request handler you specified. The handler arguments depend on the Kotlin programming model being used.

Cloud Functions automatically captures an application's standard output streams and sends them to the centralized logging system in Yandex Cloud. This system also logs service records about the start and end of each function and any errors that occur during its execution. For more information about the log format, see Kotlin function runtime logging.
