I have two projects for dev and prod. I want to be able to run a script to copy dev config to prod.
Firebase Remote Config has an API for programatically updating Remote Config. But as far as I can tell, you need to init admin with a project-specific service account. It seems like I would need two admin instances, but I'm not sure that's possible?
I'm wondering if someone has done this before and has an example script. Thanks!
See docs:
https://firebase.google.com/docs/remote-config/automate-rc
There is no Firebase Admin SDK for Flutter, so you'll have to implement this on a different platform that is supported. For a list of these platforms and instructions on setting it up, see the documentation on adding Firebase to a server.
For these platforms that the Firebase Admin SDK targets, you can create multiple instances of the FirebaseApp class, and initialize each of them with different credentials and project configuration. For examples of how to do this, see the documentation on initializing multiple apps.

I need to set a secret in my functions config but I want to make sure, that this secret cannot be accessed by anyone, even if the person has access to the firebase project and thus the cli itself.
What I mean by that is, if I set the secret in my cli, I can then retrieve this secret firebase functions:config:get. There are people who might have access to the firebase cli of this project that should not be able to access this secret.
Is there a way to achieve this?
The functions configuration you're referring to is only saved on the local machine. It will not be checked into source control. Other developers who use the CLI in the same project, but on different machines, will not be able to see that configuration.
The configuration will be available in the deployed code, however. If each developer needs a fully isolated configuration at runtime, they should each have their own project to work with.
I want to use Firebase cloud functions but when I try to init exists project I get error.
This is the error "Error: HTTP Error: 403, The caller does not have permission"
I created project before and then I moved project folder. When I had tried deploy, it wasn't work. I don't remember which error I got. And then I tried init same project but I got this error.
I tried logout and login again but it wasn't work.
I deleted "firebase-tools" but it wasn't work too.
And after I tried on different computer and I got same error.
And also I have Firebase Admin permission.
The firebase init command initializes/enables the project to use Cloud Functions for Firebase. Owners or Editors should use this command. Owners/Editors have higher permissions which allows APIs to be enabled (e.g. allowing the project to create VMs, Cloud Functions, or create a NoSQL Database).
Therefore I think you should perform this operation with Owner/Editor role.
You need to have Owner or Editor IAM permission on the GCP project to use firebase init command.
The firebase init command initializes/enables the project to use Cloud Functions/Hosting for Firebase. Owners/Editors have higher permissions that allow APIs to be enabled etc.
it is a first-time task when you starting the development, and then init command can be avoided if you have set up your cloud functions code in VCS for multiple developers or you.
i.e, Usually after writing code, you will replicate the project to other developers, who will then also write code and use firebase use yourprojectid further.
What's the best way to work with multiple environments/projects on firebase?
I can switch between firebase projects using the the CLI.
I see here how to add environment variables to a firebase project and access them through firebase-functions's .config() method.
Is there a way to do something similar on the client-side when using firebase hosting.
For example: I'm using Algolia to run searches. I have firebase-functions to keep the indexes up to date, and run the searches from the client. Both functions and the hosted content need to point to the right Algolia project depending on the environment. I'd like to tie both configs to the same switch; firebase use staging vs firebase use production, for example. What's the best way to go about that?
So I’m testing out the CLI today and firebase init with db/hosting selected, and choosing to create a new project, always says Error: Permission denied..
sudo firebase init didn’t help.
firebase-tools version 3.0.3 on OS X 10.11.5.
firebase init
You're about to initialize a Firebase project in this directory:
/Users/splaktar/Git/tmp
Before we get started, keep in mind:
* You are initializing in an existing Firebase project directory
? What Firebase CLI features do you want to setup for this folder? Database: Deploy Firebase Realtime Database Rules
=== Project Setup
First, let's associate this project directory with a Firebase project.
You can create multiple project aliases by running firebase use --add,
but for now we'll just set up a default project.
? What Firebase project do you want to associate as default? [don't setup a default project]
=== Database Setup
Firebase Realtime Database Rules allow you to define how your data should be
structured and when your data can be read from and written to.
? What file should be used for Database Rules? database.rules.json
Error: Permission denied.
I've tried the answers here but they did not help. Is this just a bug in the firebase-tools?
I have the same issue and this is how I fixed it.
run firebase init
Deselect ❯◯ Database: Deploy Firebase Realtime Database Rules
Go through other steps to setup the initial app, selecting the default for each should work just fine.
run firebase serve
Hope that helps.
Sometimes it could happen when .firebaserc file exists.
Remove .firebaserc file and reattempt firebase init.
I was with the same problem, but I was not accessing the right account.
After accessed the right account, I created a new project and run "firebase list" (before this not happened) and my new project was there.
This solved my problem.

Is there a way to delete an app via Firebase CLI?
Our CI creates a temporary Firebase app for a feature branch (based on the CI build number), and then runs tests on it. At the end it needs to delete the app. I'm not entirely sure how this is done. firebase disable:hosting just disables hosting and does not delete the app. This is similar to how we would have used Heroku review apps or Heroku forked apps. A similar CI workflow can also be achieved on Google App engine via versions.
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
The correct command is firebase hosting:disable, which make your site offline. You can not remove your project, instead you can overwrite it by creating a new one with firebase init.
More info here https://firebase.google.com/docs/cli/.
There is currently no public API to delete a Firebase backend.
The recommended practice is to use the same database for testing and (if needed) put each run in its own node under the root. So instead of creating/deleting a new database, you're just create/deleting a node in a single database.
Using the command firebase use <alias> --unaliasand then delete the project from the console https://console.firebase.google.com/
Check before the list of commands with the command -h
