How do I connect Roblox to Cloud Firestore

Hi,

So, I want to connect my firestore-database to Roblox, I’ve been reading the rest-API and am getting confused. I tried, I Need Help. How do I send an HTTPRequest to the API or my database?

Anyone that has done this before I need help would be amazing!
