Answer 1

You can use the cloud operations suite to setup alerts for errors being thrown in your application to then act on those alerts.

For example you can get email alerts, but there's a whole heap of other options too, like SMS, or to trigger pub/sub or http webhooks (eg to Slack channels) etc.

Answer 2

I recommend you to use a log based metric on Cloud Logging.

Then you can create an alert on this metrics

On the notification channel, you can choose Email, or something else (PubSub message, Slack messages,...)
