I am using Firebase Authentication in my app. I used method like setDisplayName in my app so that user can change the user's name himself through the app. But, the problem is that I can't access this name through my console. I can't edit it. There are simple columns in Firebase console like,
identifiers,providers,UID,Providers,Signed In.
There is no column for User Name. How can I access this information through console?
The Firebase console shows only limited information about each user profile. The rest of the information is only available when you access the profile through a Firebase API, or export the data.
Keep in mind that Firebase provides Admin SDKs, which you can run on your development machine to accomplish simple administrative tasks such as this.

A project that we are building uses the Google cloud identity toolkit multi-tenant feature. We have two tenants that we are actively using. We interact with all of this through Firebase's authentication suite.
I've noticed that when using this the user accounts do not show up in Firestore's UI anymore. The same goes for the local emulator.
I know the user has been created because when I log in I get back the correct uid matching the user profile created in firestore that I can see in the local emulator.
I'd like to know if anyone can help me with one of the following:
Is there a way to manage the users created for a multi-tenant setup through the emulator?
Is there a way for me to use gcloud cli locally to manage the users that I have created locally?
Good news! The updated version of the emulator will show you tenants. Once you run the emulator, attempt to login as a user through a tenant, and your "auth" page will magically get a "Tenant" dropdown.
Bad news! The non-default-tenant users don't seem to persist by any export method I have discovered so far.
As for seeing those users in the firebase console, it's pretty easy, but an extra step. Under "authentication" in the firebase console, you should see a tenant dropdown.
If you open that, there will be a link "Other tenants can be managed in the Google Cloud Console". Click it, then click "users" on the left. Finally choose your tenant in the "Tenant" dropdown.
I have a Firebase project, which I'm currently using with android. I need to programmatically fetch details of the users authorized along with the UID, Email, etc. Exactly the way it is shown in firebase (with the search), this web portal will be given to the vendor or the person using it to verify the user's authenticity.
I've attached the screenshot from Firebase, I'm hoping to replicate it the same way with the search. If this is possible, how do I go about doing this?
It's not possible to list users from an Android app, using only the Firebase Authentication SDK. You can list users using the Firebase Admin SDK, but that can only be run on a backend you control, using service account credentials for your project.
It might be easier if you store user info in a database, to be queried by client code, rather than try to have your app try to access auth data directly.
Using Firebase I want to create different groups of users (i.e. users, admins etc) for my app. I've created some users via the console but I'm trying to find out if it's possible to assign roles to these users via the console too?
After some reading on their website firebase recommends using custom claims which can be encoded within a user's access token. This sounds perfect but the only way I can find to issue such claims is coding an app to access the admin SDK. Is there any way to achieve the same functionality but via the firebase console instead?
I have a Firebase app, and I want to know if it's possible to restrict a Firebase Console user to access only to the "Authorizations" tab. (to CRUD users). The access must be by the Firebase (regular) Web Console
Especially, I don't want the user to see the database data via the web console. Is that possible? I've managed to give him access to the entire project, and he can do anything I can do (is an Admin).
I haven't found nothing about this in the docs / searching.

Collaborators on a project currently have access to the entire Firebase Console. You can limit to having read-only access, but you currently can't limit what panels they have access to.
We've heard the request before and know this would expand the usefulness of the Firebase Console. I recommend that your file a feature request, to add your vote.
