    Sorry you have to deal with this. You can stay on Cloud Run functions. Here is what to change before June 30, 2027:
    
    1. Find functions on PHP 8.2. In the console, check the runtime of each function. Note every one on php82.
    2. Change the runtime. Set the runtime to php84 or php85 and update your dependencies.
    3. Deploy each function again. Deploy and test every function before June 30, 2027.

    Google Cloud says:
    - If you do nothing: Functions that stay on a decommissioned runtime may be disabled.
    
    You can stay on Cloud Run functions. To choose when it happens, make the change yourself before June 30, 2027.
