How do I remove a hosted site from firebase - firebase

I have a hosted site on firebase which I am not using anymore. I still want to keep the project but want to remove the hosted site. Is there any way to do this or do I just need to upload an empty directory. Doesn't seem to be an option in the UI

It can be deleted.
Run firebase hosting:disable through the firebase-tools CLI first.
Go to Firebase Console and select Hosting from the menu of the left.
You will see the deployed project with a list of your historical actions like Deployed, disabled, etc.
Only after you have disabled the site, the "three vertical dots" menu will be available for you to choose the action to delete the deployment.

If you have multiple site hosted in same project, then use -s flag to specify the site you want to disable.
firebase hosting:disable -s yoursitename

You don't need to upload empty directory.
Just open your project's root directory and enter the following command
firebase hosting:disable
CLI Response :
$ firebase hosting:disable
? Are you sure you want to disable Firebase Hosting for the site xyz
This will immediately make your site inaccessible! Yes
✔ Hosting has been disabled for xyz. Deploy a new version
to re-enable.
This will instantly disable running website also adds a Disabled status in release history. Tested on firebase CLI version 9.20.0

It's a bit hidden, but here are the steps:
Go to the Firebase Hosting console for your project, you will see your domain.
Hover over your domain. There's an overflow menu (⋮ three vertical dots) on the right.
From the overflow menu select Delete Domain

[Update]
For multiple site hosted !! use command
firebase hosting:disable --project yoursitename
for me it work!! Can your try?

You can use the following command:
firebase hosting:disable -s <firebase_project_name>
replace <firebase_project_name> with the name of your firebase project. This allows you to unsubscribe from the current project and place it in disable mode and you cannot receive traffic from the published web page. When you want to re-enable it, you can do it from the visual platform. I leave an image attached so that you can be guided.

Manually
You can easily go to the console, and click on the 3 vertical dots and delete the site.
Using CLI
Disable only
Stops serving Firebase Hosting traffic for the active Firebase
project.
Your project's Hosting URL will display a "Site Not Found" message
after running this command.
If you want to disable, as the other answers are saying use this command:
firebase hosting:disable
If you're using multi-sites, you have to specify the project name:
firebase hosting:disable --project yoursitename
Delete forever
Deletes the specified Hosting site.
Deleting a site is a permanent action. If you delete a site, Firebase doesn't maintain records of deployed files or deployment history, and the site cannot be reactivated by you or anyone else.
(Optional) Skip the confirmation prompt by passing the following flags: -f or --force
To delete this site (similar to when you go to the console > delete manually) run this command:
firebase hosting:sites:delete yoursitename -f
Be careful when using the -f, but if you're running this as a script command, it might be required.

I spent too much time on this and hopefully this can be helpful. I did deploy my stuff using firebase deploy however I was not able to see in on the firebase console. When I tried firebase hosting:disable I got this Error: HTTP Error: 400, Invalid project ID specified.
The steps below helped me delete my project.
To find the project, you have to get the output of firebase
deploy which will have a console url that looks like this:
Project Console:
https://console.firebase.google.com/project/<your-project-id>/overview.
Follow this link and go to project settings. You should be able to
delete your project in there.

I had to spend several hours removing the default website on Firebase hosting.
The way that I found was :
Enter "firebase init database" in Terminal. It initialize all websites including the default one so that you can set up a new one.
I hope it helps you.

As of now there is no proper way to bulk delete all the previous deployments in a project.
However the best thing you can do is to empty the firebase hosting folder and then deploy it using firebase deploy
This option has been given as a feature request to firebase. Lets hope its get implemented soon :)

1.Sign in to Firebase, then open your project.
2.Click the Settings icon near project Overview button, then select Project settings.
3.In the Your apps card, select the app that you want to delete.
4.Find the Delete Project button from bottom of the page , click Delete Project.
5.Check the points , then click Remove app permanently.

Getting firebase.json

Using the Firebase console, I created a project and two apps, connected my own domain, and set up a few dynamic links.
Everything works perfectly!
Now I need to add some redirects in the hosting section in firebase.json. I have installed the CLI for this.
The problem is, I don't know how to get the firebase.json file generated by the console in order to modify it.

How can I prevent somebody who has my google-services.json from accessing my project?

I would like to know how can I prevent somebody who has my google-services.json file associated with one of my Firebase Firestore projects from accessing my project.
you don't need to create a new google-service.json after you make any changes to console,
it will be automatically created,
you just need to download it from
settings -> Project settings -> select your package/bundle-id -> click the download icon
I don't there's a way to you can change those credentials for the same project. Even if you delete that app and recreate it in Firebase project, it'll change the mobilesdk_app_id only. Creating a new project maybe the only way to get a completely new google-services.json
I'm not sure which SSH keys you are referring to but if you are just re-configuring your application then you can visit https://console.firebase.google.com/project/_/settings/general and then select the app name you are looking for. You'll have an option to download google-services.json there. The rest of configuration process should remain the same.

How can I upload my webapp to Amplify from Gitlab without using a .zip file

I am new to HTML/CSS and I'm trying to use Amplify to host my static site. I can easily use the "manual deploy" option and upload a .zip file.
What is the preferred method of using Gitlab with Amplify so that changes can be easily made?
My goal is to have everything in a repository that's not zipped so I can make constant changes.
You'll want to set up hosting for your website using the Hosting with Amplify Console option, which provides a git-based workflow for building, deploying, and hosting your website direct from source control.
You can trigger this workflow by running amplify add hosting in your project directory. Next, select the Hosting with Amplify Console option. Then, select the Continuous deployment option. This will open a browser window and take you to your amplify-project homepage. Here, click on the Frontend Environments tab, select your repository provider, and click "Connect branch". You will have to follow the steps to authorize Amplify to access your repository. Once your provider is authorized, you should see a dropdown menu with a list of your repositories. Select the appropriate repository and branch and click "Next".
Next, confirm your build settings. Assuming your website resides at the root of your project directory, your build settings should likely look something like the following:
version: 1
frontend:
phases:
# IMPORTANT - Please verify your build commands
build:
commands: []
artifacts:
# IMPORTANT - Please verify your build output directory
baseDirectory: /
files:
- '**/*'
cache:
paths: []
Again, click "Next". On the next screen, choose "Save and Deploy". Assuming all things were configured correctly, Amplify should now clone your repository and deploy it. You can now confirm that the process has executed properly by following the link provided by the CLI. Hereafter, every and anytime you push changes to your website to gitlab, Amplify will re-deploy your website automatically.

Firebase dynamic links on customdomain rewrite in hosting but how

I've setup a custom domain to use for firebase Dynamic Links. Hosting has been setup in Firebase Console and I tried to use dynamic links without the customdomain, but just a xxx.page.link.
Now I want to return to use the custom domain, but from the console I'm told that:
A configuration already exists for this site. Add the snippet below to your firebase.json file and redeploy your changes. Be sure the rewrite rule is the first match for your dynamic link.
I'm not exactly sure how to handle this. Should I use the CLI and init a project to make this change or can I somehow do this from the portal itself.
If I need to use the CLI, how do I then access the existing project and make the change?
It seems you're already using Firebase Hosting outside of just for Dynamic Links. In that case you'll need to configure it through the CLI.
The configuration for Firebase Hosting must be made through deploying the firebase.json file through the Firebase CLI. There's no way to configure this directly in the Firebase console.
You can create an empty directory, run firebase init in there, and configure it to your existing project. Once that is done, you can create and deploy the minimal firebase.json file required as shown in the documentation on setting up your custom domain.

How do I host on Firebase?

I want to host a website in Firebase. I followed the instruction Firebase gave me and there is an instruction says: Add your static files to your deploy directory (the default is public). I don't know what it means, so I just entered the code under this instruction, which is: firebase deploy, and the command prompt responded with: Error: Cannot understand what targets to deploy. Check that you specified valid targets if you used the --only or --except flag. Otherwise, check your firebase.json to ensure that your project is initialized for the desired features. Do I need to create a static file? I don't really know what to do next. The link to the instruction is here: https://console.firebase.google.com/project/example-website/hosting , you need to sign into Google in order to access it.
Try initializing your project with the CLI as explained here: https://firebase.google.com/docs/cli/
As mentioned there "The init command steps you through setting up your project directory, including asking which Firebase features you want to use." With the features correctly declared you will be able to run firebase deploy without any error
The error you are getting because JSON file is missing. which mean you have not correctly initialize firebase project. Follow these steps to do it correctly:
After installing firebase, from your console enter 'firebase login' and login with your gmail account.
Now enter 'firebase init' and select hosting option by using
Space key and press enter and also select your project.(don't forget to press space tab on correct option) It will ask about public folder, just press enter.
Then will ask if your app is single page app. Press Y or N
and enter.
Now you will get a public folder, inside will be a
index.html file. Open it and do some changes if you want. Now from
console enter 'firebase deploy'
It's time to connect your domain, if you have any. Under hosting, now you will see new option 'Connect Domain'. Click on it and follow the instructions. I have connected my domain parimeo same way to firebase. If you don't want to connect any domain then firebase will also provide you a link to your web app.
