Firebase Cloud Functions: Throw Https error inside try catch block

Question

I use TypeScript in my callable Cloud functions. Their structure looks something like this:

exports.sayHello = functions.https.onCall(async (data, context) => { try { const email: string = data.email; const isStudent: boolean = data.isStudent if (isStudent) { const mathGrade: string = data.mathgrade; try { // Access Firestore } catch (error) { // Throw Https error } } else { const mainSubject: string = data.mainsubject; try { // Access Firestore } catch (error) { // Throw Https error } } } catch (error) { // Handle type error (the typecasting failed because of the json data) } });

My question now is if the Https errors I throw would be caught by the outer try catch block, because what I want is send them to client

Yes, it would be caught by the outer catch.
