Should Apps.Get (call site) be wrapped with retryTime? I've made a similar PR before (https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-google/pull/1713/files) but since the Apps.Get call has been removed in master/2.0.0 (#2386), I can't see if/how to make this change.

We now generate the app engines resource code in Magic Modules, the file would be here: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules/blob/master/third_party/terraform/resources/resource_app_engine_application.go

@emilymye Thanks for the info! Will Apps.Get still be used by google_project in future 1.x releases? See resource_google_project.go#[email protected]. That code was removed from master by #2386 on Nov 2, but was still present in the v1.20.0 release on Dec 14.

[emilymye]

Yup, that's the plan. @chrisst may have dealt with those retries for 2.x going forward but tagging to make sure.

[chrisst]

Correct, as of https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-google/pull/2568/files we should retry on 503's for all CRUD requests made by generated resources.
