Unable to do Firebase deploy - Error: Invalid Firebase specified
I've faced the same issue (Invalid Firebase Specified) when imported project from old firebase dashboard to their newer console, and fixed it using the following terminal commands,
firebase use --clear
//Clear any previous project selection for firebase-tools
firebase use --add
// Add the newly imported project with a new alias
After clearing and re-adding the project with an alias, i was able to deploy it successfully using
firebase deploy
.
First off, fixing your permissions error is fairly simple:
sudo chown -R $USER ~/.config/configstore
Then, to deploy the command is
firebase deploy --project MY_PROJECT_ID
Where MY_PROJECT_ID is the first entry in the 'Project ID / Instance' column of the firebase list
table. Check out firebase use --help
command to set the default project for a directory
As Chris Raynor mentioned, first fix your permission problem with:
sudo chown -R $USER ~/.config/configstore
My upgrade resulted in the same error ("Invalid Firebase specified"). I found that clearing and re-adding the project solved my problem.
I ran the commands below, after migrating to the new version of firebase and following the initial interactive process.
firebase use --clear
firebase use --add
The "add" option gave me the following interactive prompts:
? Which project do you want to add? my-project-name
? What alias do you want to use for this project? (e.g. staging) staging
After clearing and re-adding, my deploy command worked according to the documentation
firebase deploy
The final working output looked like this:
i deploying database, hosting
i hosting: preparing public directory for upload...
✔ hosting: 34 files uploaded successfully
i starting release process (may take several minutes)...
✔ Deploy complete!
I've recently encountered this problem suddenly while trying to deploy to production it just suddenly shows this message and trying above methods didn't work.
Here's what worked on mine.
First I logged out my firebase account by:
firebase logout
then logged in again
firebase login
then just reselect the project
firebase use project_name
and I can now deploy properly without the problem reoccurring again.
