Hi Edmond,
I had the same issue as you initially, seems like Firebase console might have changed design…
When you come to “Project Settings”, as described in the tutorial, the API Key is no longer found within “Your Project”. You need to scroll down a bit more to the section “Your Apps”. If you do not have a web app yet, you need to add one.
Then that section will show a piece of code including your API Key and other details:
const firebaseConfig = {
apiKey: “xxxxx”,
authDomain: “xxxxx”,
projectId: “xxxxxx”,
storageBucket: “xxxxxx”,
messagingSenderId: “xxxxxx”,
appId: “xxxxxx”,
measurementId: “xxxxxx”,
};

Hope this helps!
Regards

Perhaps my question has already been answered… When following the steps to set up a Firebase project, I don’t see the API-key as mentioned in step 4.

Was it because you were using VS Code?
With those configurations you’re running a previous version of the ESP32 core.

To be able to use the latest version of te ESP32 core in VS Code, you need to use pioarduino: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/vs-code-pioarduino-ide-esp32/

If you use Arduino IDE, you don’t have that issue.

Can you try running the code in Arduino IDE?

Hi Sara,

This is my PlatformIO setting:

[env:freenove_esp32_wrover]
platform = espressif32
board = freenove_esp32_wrover
framework = arduino
monitor_speed = 115200
board_build.partitions = huge_app.csv
lib_deps =
mobizt/FirebaseClient@^2.2.4 (I have tried 2.0.3 and still get the same result)

The API key I am using is the same as in the project settings snippet and also in .json file from my project.

I am using the wrover_kit camera model and can confirm the camera is functioning.

Hi.
I just tested the project.
I didn’t have any issues. It is compiling as it is without the need to change any lines.

What version of the library are you using?
What version of the ESP32 core? And what board are you choosing to compile your code?

Did you insert the API key for your project corecctly?
I noticed that the interface changed a bit, and now you need to scroll down and find the API key in the small snippet at the end of the Project Settings Page under “//Your Web app’s Firebase Configuration”.

Double-check, and tell me the results.

Sara

Hi Sara
I am not seeing any uploaded photos/files in firebase storage in any of my buckets.

I have followed the tutorial closely and used this format, “bucket-name.appspot.com”
even though bucket id is my gs://bucket-name.firebasestorage.app.

And for this section:
// Configure SSL client
ssl_client.setInsecure();
ssl_client.setConnectionTimeout(1000); // replaced with ( ssl_client.setTimeout(1000) as class WiFiClientSecure’ has no member named ‘setConnectionTimeout’; )

ssl_client.setHandshakeTimeout(5)


I’ve already checked with the rules of my storage and have tried with/without “allow read, write: if request.auth !=null;”

I’m uncertain whether because I’m compiling from a arm64 M1 silicon architecture being the issue or the limited memory of my esp32.

I’ve even tried testing with a .txt file and yet have had no success, even when using the Mobitz upload template.

Regards, Will.
