Can't initialize app after update firebase-admin

[trigonometric-act]

• Operating System version: Windows 11
• Firebase SDK version: "firebase-admin": "^11.3.0" (was "firebase-admin": "^9.12.0"), and "firebase-functions": "^3.24.1",
• Firebase Product: Cloud functions
• Node.js version: 16
• NPM version: 8.5.5

I updated firebase-admin dependency from 9.12 to 11.3.0 and tried to deploy cloud functions.
Following the new convention the initialize app must look like:

import { initializeApp } from "firebase-admin/app";
/... logic for import service account/
initializeApp({
credential: admin.credential.cert(serviceAcc)
});

Deploy output:

I found a few problems with this issue:

• I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.
• This issue does not seem to follow the issue template. Make sure you provide all the required information.

Hey @trigonometric-act could you confirm your TypeScript version? Starting v11.0.0 firebase-admin uses TypeScript v4.6.4. https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/admin/node#version_1100_-_16_june_2022

Also, on cloud functions you can use Google Application Default Credentials. You don't need to initialize with a service account. See https://firebase.google.com/docs/admin/setup#initialize-without-parameters for more information.

@lahirumaramba I am using "^4.6.4" as ts version. I've found in docs that you need to import cert the following way in order to use a service account:

import { initializeApp, cert } from "firebase-admin/app";

Also I'm using two different environments to deploy functions, I suppose that if code inits without paramenters will respect the environment used in command: deploy --project ...

Am I right?

That is correct, please see the migration guide for more: https://firebase.google.com/docs/admin/migrate-node-v10

Also I'm using two different environments to deploy functions, I suppose that if code inits without paramenters will respect the environment used in command: deploy --project ...

If it is a Google environment, the project id will be obtained by the SDK. Otherwise, you can set GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT environment variable to specify the project ID explicitly or pass in the app initialization.

import { initializeApp, applicationDefault } from 'firebase-admin/app';

initializeApp({
  credential: applicationDefault(),
  projectId: '<FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID>',
});
