Describe the problem

I want to try the new named database feature of firestore but when i try to access a named database from the client i get always an FirebaseError: Missing or insufficient permissions. error.

When I switch back to (default) database everything works fine.

Here my security rules:

rules_version = '2';
service cloud.firestore {
	match /databases/{database}/documents {
    
    match /admin/{elementId} {
    	allow read, write: if database == 'test-db'
    }
    
    match /admin2/{elementId} {
    	allow read, write: if database == '(default)'
    }
  
    //
    // Users
    //
    match /users/{userId} {
    	allow get, write: if true
    }
  }
}

Steps and code to reproduce issue

When I init the Firestore instance like this:

const firestore = getFirestore('test-db')

It's not working, if I do that:

const firestore = getFirestore()

It works

Each named database and default have separate rules.

Go to following page to verify the security rules for your database:
https://console.cloud.google.com/firestore/databases

You can use the Firebase CLI to deploy rules. During the public preview, there is no Console support for editing rules. See:
https://firebase.google.com/docs/rules/manage-deploy

For example, after running firebase init firestore, edit:

named.rules

rules_version = '2';
service cloud.firestore {
  match /databases/{database}/documents {
    match /{document=**} {
      allow read, write;
    }
  }
}

firebase.json

{
  firestore: [  
    {
      "database": "test-db",
      "rules": "named.rules",
    },
    {
      "database": "test-db-1",
      "rules": "named.rules",
    },
    {
      "database": "test-db-2",
      "rules": "named.rules",
    },
  ]
}

Then run, firebase deploy --only firestore.

Hello tom-andersen

Thank you very much for your reply, now the things are clear.

One question, how can I access this link: https://pantheon.corp.google.com/firestore/databases I don't have a @google.com address ;-)

[tom-andersen]

Oops! Sorry, that should have been: https://console.cloud.google.com/firestore/databases

(I edited my original response to reflect this)

[aronsuarez]

Thank's for the link, but I get 404 with this link, even I select a project.

[tom-andersen]

Hmm... I need to verify, but you might need to be on the Blaze plan instead of Spark. Do you know which plan you are on?

[aronsuarez]

I'm on the Blaze plan with all of my projects.

[tom-andersen]

Sorry ... I have learned that page isn't launched yet. 😢

You will need to use the CLI for now:

https://cloud.google.com/firestore/docs/manage-databases#create_a_database

I thought that is the case, by the way, i have tested the connection, it works perfect.

Great job with that feature, thank you!!
