Problem you have encountered:

When deploying our gRPC service's API descriptor to API Gateway, we get the following error:

Invalid file descriptor set "api_descriptor.pb": generic::invalid_argument: Invalid file descriptor set "api_descriptor.pb": proto: message field "buf.validate.FieldPathElement.field_type" cannot resolve type: "google.protobuf.FieldDescriptorProto.Type" not found

We are using Buf's protovalidate which uses google.protobuf.FieldDescriptorProto.Type but it seems that API Gateway doesn't know this type for some reason. I have tested the same API descriptor locally using Envoy proxy and it works without issue.

What you expected to happen:

The API gateway to deploy successfully

Steps to reproduce:

Create a new .proto file which uses Buf validations
Generate the API descriptor for this file
Attempt to deploy this API descriptor to API Gateway

Other information (workarounds you have tried, documentation consulted, etc):

The only workaround which seems to work is commenting out the fields that use the google.protobuf.FieldDescriptorProto.Type type from the source proto before compiling.
