Developing in Kotlin: Overview

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

You can add an SDK library to the runtime to work with the Yandex Cloud API. For more info on 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 learn more about requirements for declaring dependencies, see Building and managing Kotlin function dependencies.

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

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