Hi, I need to fetch data from firebase. To do that, i need access_token (I dont want to use firebase secret which is deprecated).

How can i generate firebase access token using serviceaccount file which i generated from Firebase?

Thanks,

Prabhat

Hi Prabhat!

Here's a repo of a working API Proxy that shows an example for doing exactly that.

If you have a service account file like this:

{
  "type": "service_account",
  "project_id": "YOUR-PROJECT-NAME",
  "private_key_id": "bdb91206c515893e1f6815e6b80bff113f92a1a0",
  "private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\nMIIEvQIBADAN.......FRPE=\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
  "client_email": "YOUR-PROJECT-NAME@appspot.gserviceaccount.com",
  "client_id": "10ee87dh4855500679513",
  "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
  "token_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token",
  "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
  "client_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/blah-blah-blah@gserviceaccount.com"
}

...then you can use this proxy to connect.
