Thanks for the report! We're working on resolving this; stay tuned!

    "firebase-admin": "^5.12.0",
    "firebase-functions": "^1.0.1",

Same issue. The trigger was working in "firebase-functions": "^0.8.1"

@valmassoi If you reverted your SDK version, does it work again?

[valmassoi]

Yep @laurenzlong I just reverted and it works again (but I'd like to get on v1 asap):

$ yarn add firebase-functions@0.8.1 -E
# undo migration guide code changes
$ date && firebase deploy --only functions:createUser

Also note when I was on 1.0.1 the functions.auth.user().onCreate trigger would still work for new email/password users - just not my GitHub/Gmail providers

[laurenzlong]

@valmassoi Could you share your code for both v0.8.1 and v1.0.1 versions? They're both targetting the same backend so I'm very confused as to why the SDK version would affect whether the function gets triggered.

// v1.0.1
export const createUser = functions.auth
    .user()
    .onCreate(async (userRecord, context) => {
        const { uid, email, displayName } = userRecord
        const [firstName, lastName] = displayName ? displayName.split(' ') : ['', '']
        const newUserRecord = {
            uid,
            email,
            firstName,
            lastName,
            qualificationRecord: {
                kyc: "Incomplete",
                accreditation: "Incomplete",
            }
        }
        const userDocRef = admin.firestore().collection('users').doc(email)
        await userDocRef.set(newUserRecord)
        return
})

// v0.8.1
export const createUser = functions.auth
    .user()
    .onCreate(async (event) => {
        const user = event.data
        const { uid, email, displayName } = user
        const [firstName, lastName] = displayName ? displayName.split(' ') : ['', '']
        const userRecord = {
            uid,
            email,
            firstName,
            lastName,
            qualificationRecord: {
                kyc: "Incomplete",
                accreditation: "Incomplete",
            }
        }
        const userDocRef = admin.firestore().collection('users').doc(email)
        await userDocRef.set(userRecord)
        return
})

When it doesn't work I don't even see the outlined_flag | createUser | Function execution started in the functions logs

Does
914843b#diff-75da6051ba1f2aa8bbe00ed0340a72c0L86
have to do with it maybe?

Where makeCloudFunction changed to this.onOperation

[rjhuijsman]

The lack of functions getting triggered on a passwordless e-mail login was a server-side issue; we've fixed that now! Thanks again for the reports; let us know if you're still having trouble.

[valmassoi]

Confirmed it's working again - thanks @rjhuijsman

I am experiencing same issue with anonymous user creation:

"firebase-admin": "~6.0.0",
"firebase-functions": "^2.0.5",

[radvansky-tomas]

Plus the anonym user has property: isAnonymous: false, which is wrong as well

[radvansky-tomas]

Issue was on my side - new firebase functions version with correct syntax fixed the issue:
exports.authAction = functions.auth.user().onCreate((userRecord, context) => { const creationTime = userRecord.metadata.creationTime; // 2016-12-15T19:37:37.059Z const lastSignInTime = userRecord.metadata.lastSignInTime; // 2018-01-03T16:23:12.051Z }
