Does GCP Datastore export reads all entities

I am investigating on the best approach to backuping our data every night. GCP documentation:
https://cloud.google.com/datastore/docs/export-import-entities

However I am concerned about this line:
Entity reads and writes performed by export and import operations count towards your Firestore in Datastore mode costs.

Does this mean that every night we're going to be reading all records? How expensive can this backuping solution get?

I think yes all records will be read. This is quite clear in provided documentation.

You can check pricing here as well. Fortunately there is Free quota per day, not sure how big is your database...

If you want to estimate all cost of whole your solution you can use very friendly calculator. If you pick or search for Datastore product it can help you too estimate cost.

If you use other products as well you can add it to total calculation.

I hope it will help!
