Firestore Point in time backup restore

How can one achieve point in time backup for firestore and then restore it at a later  time. I have looked at scheduling data exports here https://cloud.google.com/firestore/docs/solutions/schedule-export#cloud-console which uses cloud function as means to take regular backups. 

 

I also looked at realtime databases by Firebase. 

Only if Firestore had point in time recovery option just like Dynamo DB in AWS

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/PointInTimeRecovery.html

 

Is this achievable somehow?

Your need for PIT recovery is legitimate, and you are not the only one asking for this feature. In fact, Developers are working on implementing the PIT recovery for Firestore as we speak. We don't have any fixed release date as yet, but progress is being swiftly made. 

Is there any fixed plan for this now? Or can you suggest any alternative temporarily?
