JSON data not being imported into Firebase Emulator

[ThatZacman]

When I import the data using the firestore-import --accountCredentials serviceAccountFile.json --backupFile output.json command the process runs successfully, but when refreshing the emulator there is no data in Firestore. What could I be doing wrong as the exported json file hasn't been altered.

The commands that I run were:

• firestore-export --accountCredentials serviceAccountFile.json --backupFile output.json
• export FIRESTORE_EMULATOR_HOST=0.0.0.0:8081 (I have confirmed the port is correct as it throws an error when attempting another port).
• firestore-import --accountCredentials serviceAccountFile.json --backupFile output.json

Is it still possible to import data this way? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

The issue was that the service account credentials I had generated from firebase was not for the same project I had linked my firebase emulator too.

Hey, I'm having a similar issue.

I actually do get a "All done 🎉" result, but no data is imported to the emulator. I'm also wondering, if the account credentials are required and if yes, which ones I should use.

Does anyone have a tipp?
