iOS : invalid GOOGLE_APP_ID in GoogleService-Info.plist or set in the customized options #308

JCornat · 2017-05-17T11:20:34Z

Hello,

I have a Firebase project where I have downloaded the iOS and Android configuration files.
It works on Android, but on iOS launch, the app just crashes and here is the log.

I have checked the GoogleService-Info.plist, re-downloaded, but everytime, I got this error.

2017-05-17 12:06:45.541 BioContact[4304] <Debug> [Firebase/Core][I-COR000001] Configuring the default app.
2017-05-17 12:06:45.542 BioContact[4304] <Error> [Firebase/Core][I-COR000009] The GOOGLE_APP_ID either in the plist file 'GoogleService-Info.plist' or the one set in the customized options is invalid. If you are using the plist file, use the iOS version of bundle identifier to download the file, and do not manually edit the GOOGLE_APP_ID. You may change your app's bundle identifier to '(null)'. Or you can download a new configuration file that matches your bundle identifier from https://console.firebase.google.com/ and replace the current one.

Can you help me understand why Firebase crashes on iOS ?

Thank you !

GoogleService-Info.plist usually becomes corrupted for whatever reason.

Check platforms/ios/<Your Project>/Resources/ and platforms/ios/<Your Project>/Resources/Resources

There should be a GoogleService-Info.plist in both locations. One of these should be corrupt. Usually its the one furthest in.

Replace that one, and it should work.

JCornat · 2017-05-17T12:11:04Z

I have replaced the file in both folders and it works, thank you !

codinronan · 2017-06-11T01:58:14Z

Wow this is obscure and even more amazing that someone knew the solution. You just saved me... countless hours, @larssn .

nitin7dc · 2017-07-06T14:21:49Z

@larssn super thanks !

rolinger · 2017-08-06T12:40:17Z

holy sweet jesus batman!!!!!!!!! Like @codinronan said, this completely obscure solution fixed my issue. and I am not even using the FCM plugin, I am using the Firebase plugin. Rebuilt my app project from scratch and the problem still persisted...until I found this solution!!!!

thank you....Thank You....THANK YOU!!!!

I tried the solution, I copied GoogleService-Info.plist file into project resources folder, but still i'm facing same problem. Any one have solution

vanschroeder · 2017-09-07T18:05:10Z

@shanmicheal25 be sure to overwrite the .plist file under platforms/ios/< Your Project >/Resources/Resources with the .plist file from your root

At least that made all the difference to me

Junior-iOS · 2017-09-28T15:36:33Z

Sorry, guys.
Where do I find the path platforms/ios?

satryacode · 2017-10-04T02:46:08Z

@Junior-iOS it's in Cordova Project root folder
the folder created after you add platform in it
by running this command in your console cordova platform add ios

PredragJ · 2017-10-11T08:27:06Z

@for Xcode 9, solution is to check box at Target Membership Tab on GoogleService-Infp.plist

Geeksquid04 · 2017-10-15T17:14:04Z

where do you find the platforms folder?

sKuD51 · 2017-10-18T07:38:42Z

Same problem, I dont know why, but I replace my olds GoogleService-Info.plist in :

root folder
/platforms/ios/yourAppNameFolder/Resources
/platforms/ios/yourAppNameFolder/Resources/Resources

It works fine.

Jhonsensf · 2017-10-22T16:55:23Z

Same problem here. I replaced the files and it is working fine.

Thank you!

TheNaderio · 2017-11-10T14:39:23Z

In this File was no Informations:
/platforms/ios/yourAppNameFolder/Resources/Resource/GoogleService-Info.plist

So i copyed
this -> /platforms/ios/yourAppNameFolder/Resources/GoogleService-Info.plist
to here -> /platforms/ios/yourAppNameFolder/Resources/Resource/GoogleService-Info.plist

Xam-Devender · 2018-01-03T13:10:55Z

Thanks !!!!!!!!! Re-Downloaded -> Build and that's all it worked ... :)

roshandhabekar · 2018-03-09T14:25:43Z

hello @larssn ,
I am building ionic ios,
i got the file at ,
/platforms/ios/yourAppNameFolder/Resources/GoogleService-Info.plist

but I don't have resources folder inside resources,
/platforms/ios/yourAppNameFolder/Resources/Resource/GoogleService-Info.plist
Can you please suggest me, which one should I replace.

Thanks!

vanschroeder · 2018-03-09T14:43:01Z

@roshandhabekar per the other comments above, just create the missing Resources folder and copy the GoogleService-info.plist file into place. If that doesn't work I would suggest ionic cordova platform rm ios and ionic cordova platform add ios which is typically an expedient way to correct platform specific issues

jonathan-chin · 2018-03-14T02:06:54Z

Thanks @larssn ! indeed, the deeper plist file was empty.

Any idea why this happens?

larssn · 2018-03-14T10:05:53Z

@jonathan-chin I haven't digged into the code; I assume there's a bug in there somewhere.

edugolive · 2018-04-12T12:56:20Z

I found the problem.
These plugins, as well as the cordova-plugin-firebase, have the after-ready script, in this case scripts/fcm_config_files_process.js, which at line 20 tries to get the name of the project in this way (var name = getValue (config, 'name');).
And in the "getValue" method it tries to read the tag of the config.xml file.
That way (var value = config.match (new RegExp ('<' + name + '> (. *?) </' + Name + '>', 'i'));).
So if your config.xml file is described this way MyAppName</ name>, this will work.
Now if so, MyAppName</ name> will return as null.
That way when the rest of the script tries to do this (IOS_DIR + '/' + name + '/Resources/GoogleService-Info.plist'), this will result in "ios/null/Resources/GoogleService-Info.plist" that does not exist, and will not save the file.

Then leave the tag of config.xml in this way MyAppName and it will work.
Hug.

coolvasanth · 2018-05-24T07:06:45Z

I just removed the GoogleService-info.plist file from my project root folder and re added it, everything works fine now.

robertohuertasm · 2018-06-12T10:31:34Z

Why is this thread closed? It seems that the issue is still going on...

mohitcis · 2018-06-19T07:15:09Z

@larssn thanks, It worked for me :)

madhurakhal · 2018-11-02T09:23:03Z

I am having same problem. adding Resource with GoogleService-info.plist does not solve the problem. I am using XCode 10.1

sibabratswain11 · 2018-11-13T09:26:33Z

@madhurakhal did you find any solution ?

edugolive · 2018-11-13T20:43:30Z

My tip is you start from scratch.
Delete all your android sdk files. open the android studio and download again the versions of sdk you need.
Delete your files from the node_modules folder and download it again.
Remove your plugins used in the project and download it again.
Build project again.
It worked for me.

aryeharmon · 2019-03-26T10:13:43Z

how can i add this solution to the config.xml?

avaiyakirtib · 2019-05-17T07:26:53Z

Replacing the .plist from platforms/ios/<Your Project>/Resources/ solved my problem

devjva · 2019-10-14T15:20:01Z

Change the file permissions of the entire project, some files were read only.
it worked for me

jdavidteki · 2019-11-05T22:50:09Z

Is anyone getting this issue while using react-native?

you saved my day

GiladR1979 · 2019-11-26T07:09:30Z

Is anyone getting this issue while using react-native?

Yes. This is not solved yet.
I get a crash on +[FIRApp addAppToAppDictionary:], using +[FIRApp configureWithOptions:] and specifying the .plist file (I have multiple schemes and targets).
Weirdly it only crashes when downloading app from TestFlight and not running with XCode, and only on old iPhones- iPhone 5,6,7.

TylerByte666 · 2019-12-19T05:41:26Z

This still works as of 19/12/2019 you just made my Christmas ❤️
Thanks @larssn 🥇

Dwonload from firebase console and place in. platforms/ios//Resources/ its resolved.

ikishanoza · 2020-10-07T09:43:48Z

I am using capacitor so there is no folder called "Resources" I have tried every solution which is mentioned here still having same issue. i am using lastest xcode version.

for Capacitor replace /ios/capacitor-cordova-ios.plugins/resources/GoogleService-Info.plist

This doesn't work. I am using capacitor and the latest code.

felix-mittermeier · 2022-04-06T13:07:10Z

If you still have this issue and replacing the files did not work make sure that your appID set in your custom options at Firebase.init really do match their specific platform.
The appIds look very similar to each other but are indeed DIFFERENT for every platform (iOS, Android, Web). So make sure to check the platform first and then set the corresponding id at the options.

RomanSoviak · 2022-11-25T11:10:56Z

If you develop the app on Flutter inside FirebaseOptions object you should differentiate this parameter:

...
  appId: Platform.isIOS
          ? "1:639*****:ios:e0*********"
          : "1:639******:android:032bd**********",

EduardoIbarra · 2023-06-18T16:06:10Z

for Capacitor replace /ios/capacitor-cordova-ios.plugins/resources/GoogleService-Info.plist

This did the trick for me. The file was there, but didn't have any property.
