I cannot enable firestore on a project although I'm not using AppEngine nor Datastore

I'm trying to activate firestore on a project on which I'm not using AppEngine nor Datastore and having this error message.

Cannot enable Firestore for this project Currently Firestore cannot be enabled in projects already using Cloud Datastore or App Engine

To be more precise, I used to use datastore but now there is no entities in my project datastore. So maybe there is something that I need to disable explicitly

Thx in advance for your help

Voted to reopen since it's subtly, but meaningfully, different and not really a dup. @Frank – Dan McGrath

Unfortunately since you have previously used Cloud Datastore in that project, you cannot create a Cloud Firestore instance. Our ability to switch it currently only works if it was never used in the past.
