Unable to generate config files for a secondary 'Dev' environment

Can we access your project?

• I give permission for members of the FlutterFlow team to access and test my project for the sole purpose of investigating this issue.

Current Behavior

Hi, I am unable to generate config files for a secondary 'Dev' environment. I'm getting the error: 'Add your Firebase project ID above and grant FlutterFlow access...'.

I have confirmed the following for my dev project (vlove-dev):

The firebase@flutterflow.io user has the Editor role in IAM.

The project is on the Blaze (pay-as-you-go) plan. It has a firestore database (copy of production), authentication and storage active.

I have manually enabled the Firebase Management API, Cloud Resource Manager API, and IAM Service Account Credentials API roles.

I have tried clearing my cache and re-adding the service account permissions.

Despite all this, the auto-generate is still failing.

I've switched to the new Dev environment in Flutterflow, typed vlove-dev in the firebase project ID field.

When I try in flutterflow -> Settings -> firebase -> Connect I get an error:
"Firebase project already associated with this project."

When I try Settings -> firebase -> Generate Config Files, I get an error:
"Add your Firebase project ID above and grant FlutterFlow access to automatically generate config files."

Expected Behavior

Flutterflow should successfully generate the config files and connect to the vlove-dev firebase project.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Settings -> firebase
2. Type "vlove-dev" in Firebase Project ID
3. Click on Generate Config Files button

Reproducible from Blank

• The steps to reproduce above start from a blank project.

Hi @yairpe, it looks like you might have missed clicking "Connect" after entering your Firebase project ID, and before clicking "Generate config files". Could you please try that and let us know if it works?

Hi @rzambroni,

I did try the Connect option. see what I wrote:

"When I try in flutterflow -> Settings -> firebase -> Connect I get an error:
"Firebase project already associated with this project."

Hi there! 👋

Just to confirm—are you trying to use the same project ID in Dev as the one you’re using in Prod?

[yairpe]

Hi @Alezanello,

No. For production I use project ID A and for development I use project ID B (vlove-dev as shown)
