Privacy Manifest @capacitor-firebase/authentication NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategoryFileTimestamp

[alexookah]

Hello,
I am getting this:
The Privacy Manifest file in your XCode project requires NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategoryFileTimestamp and a reason code for using it because @capacitor-firebase/authentication uses this feature.

DOCS

What should be the correct option to use?

That's strange, the plugin itself does not access any file timestamps. Feel free to take a look at the source code. Maybe the Firebase SDK does this.

the ionic extension recommends this I dont think it comes from the firebase SDK, unless ionic runs pod install and checks pod dependencies privacy manifests.

It's not an ionic bug.
Firebase iOS SDK package had the issue as you suspected.

They fixed it in the firebase 10.25.0 SDK version
see relevant information here:
firebase/firebase-ios-sdk#12557 (comment)

@robingenz Could we update the dependecy for iOS to the latest sdk 10.25.0 to resolve this issue for everyone?

[robingenz]

Done, see #642

[alexookah]

Very nice!
Thank you!

When will you create a new capacitor firebase version?

I will publish the next release in a few days.
