Angular html5 mode with Google Cloud App Engine

Question

I'm deploying my Angular 7 app on Google Cloud (App Engine).

The app is working fine, but I've some questions...

First of all is how to handle html5 mode, so that when I'm on a route (e.g https://myapp.com/my-route/) and I refresh the browser, the server should reply my the index.html, and the angular should perform the routing, instead of returning a 404 error page.

How can I do that? Can you help me?

Thanks so much!
