Type aliases

Persistence

Persistence: string

Properties

app

app: App

The app associated with the Auth service instance.

example
var app = auth.app;

config

config: Config

The config used to initialize this instance.

currentUser

currentUser: User | null

The currently signed-in user (or null).

emulatorConfig

emulatorConfig: EmulatorConfig | null

The current emulator configuration (or null).

languageCode

languageCode: string | null

The current Auth instance's language code. This is a readable/writable property. When set to null, the default Firebase Console language setting is applied. The language code will propagate to email action templates (password reset, email verification and email change revocation), SMS templates for phone authentication, reCAPTCHA verifier and OAuth popup/redirect operations provided the specified providers support localization with the language code specified.

name

name: string

The name of the app associated with the Auth service instance.

settings

settings: AuthSettings

The current Auth instance's settings. This is used to edit/read configuration related options like app verification mode for phone authentication.

tenantId

tenantId: string | null

The current Auth instance's tenant ID. This is a readable/writable property. When you set the tenant ID of an Auth instance, all future sign-in/sign-up operations will pass this tenant ID and sign in or sign up users to the specified tenant project. When set to null, users are signed in to the parent project. By default, this is set to null.

example
// Set the tenant ID on Auth instance.
firebase.auth().tenantId = ‘TENANT_PROJECT_ID’;

// All future sign-in request now include tenant ID.
firebase.auth().signInWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)
  .then(function(result) {
    // result.user.tenantId should be ‘TENANT_PROJECT_ID’.
  }).catch(function(error) {
    // Handle error.
  });

Variables

Persistence

Persistence: { LOCAL: Persistence; NONE: Persistence; SESSION: Persistence }

An enumeration of the possible persistence mechanism types.

Type declaration

  • LOCAL: Persistence

    Indicates that the state will be persisted even when the browser window is closed or the activity is destroyed in react-native.

  • NONE: Persistence

    Indicates that the state will only be stored in memory and will be cleared when the window or activity is refreshed.

  • SESSION: Persistence

    Indicates that the state will only persist in current session/tab, relevant to web only, and will be cleared when the tab is closed.

Methods

applyActionCode

    auth/user-disabled
    Thrown if the user corresponding to the given action code has been disabled.
    auth/user-not-found
    Thrown if there is no user corresponding to the action code. This may have happened if the user was deleted between when the action code was issued and when this method was called.

    Parameters

    • code: string

      A verification code sent to the user.

    Returns Promise<void>

checkActionCode

  • checkActionCode ( code :  string ) : Promise < ActionCodeInfo >

    auth/user-disabled
    Thrown if the user corresponding to the given action code has been disabled.
    auth/user-not-found
    Thrown if there is no user corresponding to the action code. This may have happened if the user was deleted between when the action code was issued and when this method was called.

    Parameters

    • code: string

      A verification code sent to the user.

    Returns Promise<ActionCodeInfo>

confirmPasswordReset

  • confirmPasswordReset ( code :  string ,  newPassword :  string ) : Promise < void >

  • Completes the password reset process, given a confirmation code and new password.

    Error Codes

    auth/expired-action-code
    Thrown if the password reset code has expired.
    auth/invalid-action-code
    Thrown if the password reset code is invalid. This can happen if the code is malformed or has already been used.
    auth/user-disabled
    Thrown if the user corresponding to the given password reset code has been disabled.
    auth/user-not-found
    Thrown if there is no user corresponding to the password reset code. This may have happened if the user was deleted between when the code was issued and when this method was called.
    auth/weak-password
    Thrown if the new password is not strong enough.

    Parameters

    • code: string

      The confirmation code send via email to the user.

    • newPassword: string

      The new password.

    Returns Promise<void>

createUserWithEmailAndPassword

  • createUserWithEmailAndPassword ( email :  string ,  password :  string ) : Promise < UserCredential >

  • Creates a new user account associated with the specified email address and password.

    On successful creation of the user account, this user will also be signed in to your application.

    User account creation can fail if the account already exists or the password is invalid.

    Note: The email address acts as a unique identifier for the user and enables an email-based password reset. This function will create a new user account and set the initial user password.

    example
    firebase.auth().createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)
    .catch(function(error) {
  // Handle Errors here.
  var errorCode = error.code;
  var errorMessage = error.message;
  if (errorCode == 'auth/weak-password') {
    alert('The password is too weak.');
  } else {
    alert(errorMessage);
  }
  console.log(error);
});

    Parameters

    • email: string

      The user's email address.

    • password: string

      The user's chosen password.

    Returns Promise<UserCredential>

fetchSignInMethodsForEmail

  • fetchSignInMethodsForEmail ( email :  string ) : Promise < Array < string > >

  • Gets the list of possible sign in methods for the given email address. This is useful to differentiate methods of sign-in for the same provider, eg. EmailAuthProvider which has 2 methods of sign-in, email/password and email/link.

    Error Codes

    auth/invalid-email
    Thrown if the email address is not valid.

    Parameters

    • email: string

    Returns Promise<Array<string>>

getRedirectResult

  • getRedirectResult ( ) : Promise < UserCredential >

  • Returns a UserCredential from the redirect-based sign-in flow.

    If sign-in succeeded, returns the signed in user. If sign-in was unsuccessful, fails with an error. If no redirect operation was called, returns null.

    Error Codes

    auth/account-exists-with-different-credential
    Thrown if there already exists an account with the email address asserted by the credential. Resolve this by calling firebase.auth.Auth.fetchSignInMethodsForEmail with the error.email and then asking the user to sign in using one of the returned providers. Once the user is signed in, the original credential retrieved from the error.credential can be linked to the user with firebase.User.linkWithCredential to prevent the user from signing in again to the original provider via popup or redirect. If you are using redirects for sign in, save the credential in session storage and then retrieve on redirect and repopulate the credential using for example firebase.auth.GoogleAuthProvider.credential depending on the credential provider id and complete the link.
    auth/auth-domain-config-required
    Thrown if authDomain configuration is not provided when calling firebase.initializeApp(). Check Firebase Console for instructions on determining and passing that field.
    auth/credential-already-in-use
    Thrown if the account corresponding to the credential already exists among your users, or is already linked to a Firebase User. For example, this error could be thrown if you are upgrading an anonymous user to a Google user by linking a Google credential to it and the Google credential used is already associated with an existing Firebase Google user. An error.email and error.credential (firebase.auth.AuthCredential) fields are also provided. You can recover from this error by signing in with that credential directly via firebase.auth.Auth.signInWithCredential.
    auth/email-already-in-use
    Thrown if the email corresponding to the credential already exists among your users. When thrown while linking a credential to an existing user, an error.email and error.credential (firebase.auth.AuthCredential) fields are also provided. You have to link the credential to the existing user with that email if you wish to continue signing in with that credential. To do so, call firebase.auth.Auth.fetchSignInMethodsForEmail, sign in to error.email via one of the providers returned and then firebase.User.linkWithCredential the original credential to that newly signed in user.
    auth/operation-not-allowed
    Thrown if the type of account corresponding to the credential is not enabled. Enable the account type in the Firebase Console, under the Auth tab.
    auth/operation-not-supported-in-this-environment
    Thrown if this operation is not supported in the environment your application is running on. "location.protocol" must be http or https.
    auth/timeout
    Thrown typically if the app domain is not authorized for OAuth operations for your Firebase project. Edit the list of authorized domains from the Firebase console.

    This method does not work in a Node.js environment.

    example
    // First, we perform the signInWithRedirect.
// Creates the provider object.
var provider = new firebase.auth.FacebookAuthProvider();
// You can add additional scopes to the provider:
provider.addScope('email');
provider.addScope('user_friends');
// Sign in with redirect:
auth.signInWithRedirect(provider)
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// The user is redirected to the provider's sign in flow...
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Then redirected back to the app, where we check the redirect result:
auth.getRedirectResult().then(function(result) {
  // The firebase.User instance:
  var user = result.user;
  // The Facebook firebase.auth.AuthCredential containing the Facebook
  // access token:
  var credential = result.credential;
  // As this API can be used for sign-in, linking and reauthentication,
  // check the operationType to determine what triggered this redirect
  // operation.
  var operationType = result.operationType;
}, function(error) {
  // The provider's account email, can be used in case of
  // auth/account-exists-with-different-credential to fetch the providers
  // linked to the email:
  var email = error.email;
  // The provider's credential:
  var credential = error.credential;
  // In case of auth/account-exists-with-different-credential error,
  // you can fetch the providers using this:
  if (error.code === 'auth/account-exists-with-different-credential') {
    auth.fetchSignInMethodsForEmail(email).then(function(providers) {
      // The returned 'providers' is a list of the available providers
      // linked to the email address. Please refer to the guide for a more
      // complete explanation on how to recover from this error.
    });
  }
});

    Returns Promise<UserCredential>

  • isSignInWithEmailLink ( emailLink :  string ) : boolean

  • Checks if an incoming link is a sign-in with email link.

    Parameters

    • emailLink: string

    Returns boolean

onAuthStateChanged

  • onAuthStateChanged ( nextOrObserver :  Observer < any > | ( ( a :  User | null ) => any ) ,  error ? :  ( a :  Error ) => any ,  completed ? :  firebase.Unsubscribe ) : firebase.Unsubscribe

  • Adds an observer for changes to the user's sign-in state.

    Prior to 4.0.0, this triggered the observer when users were signed in, signed out, or when the user's ID token changed in situations such as token expiry or password change. After 4.0.0, the observer is only triggered on sign-in or sign-out.

    To keep the old behavior, see firebase.auth.Auth.onIdTokenChanged.

    example
    firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged(function(user) {
  if (user) {
    // User is signed in.
  }
});

    Parameters

    • nextOrObserver: Observer<any> | ((a: User | null) => any)
    • Optional error: (a: Error) => any
    • Optional completed: firebase.Unsubscribe

    Returns firebase.Unsubscribe

onIdTokenChanged

  • onIdTokenChanged ( nextOrObserver :  Observer < any > | ( ( a :  User | null ) => any ) ,  error ? :  ( a :  Error ) => any ,  completed ? :  firebase.Unsubscribe ) : firebase.Unsubscribe

  • Adds an observer for changes to the signed-in user's ID token, which includes sign-in, sign-out, and token refresh events. This method has the same behavior as firebase.auth.Auth.onAuthStateChanged had prior to 4.0.0.

    example
    firebase.auth().onIdTokenChanged(function(user) {
  if (user) {
    // User is signed in or token was refreshed.
  }
});

    Parameters

    • nextOrObserver: Observer<any> | ((a: User | null) => any)
    • Optional error: (a: Error) => any

      Optional A function triggered on auth error.

    • Optional completed: firebase.Unsubscribe

      Optional A function triggered when the observer is removed.

    Returns firebase.Unsubscribe

sendPasswordResetEmail

  • sendPasswordResetEmail ( email :  string ,  actionCodeSettings ? :  ActionCodeSettings | null ) : Promise < void >

  • Sends a password reset email to the given email address.

    To complete the password reset, call firebase.auth.Auth.confirmPasswordReset with the code supplied in the email sent to the user, along with the new password specified by the user.

    Error Codes

    auth/invalid-email
    Thrown if the email address is not valid.
    auth/missing-android-pkg-name
    An Android package name must be provided if the Android app is required to be installed.
    auth/missing-continue-uri
    A continue URL must be provided in the request.
    auth/missing-ios-bundle-id
    An iOS Bundle ID must be provided if an App Store ID is provided.
    auth/invalid-continue-uri
    The continue URL provided in the request is invalid.
    auth/unauthorized-continue-uri
    The domain of the continue URL is not whitelisted. Whitelist the domain in the Firebase console.
    auth/user-not-found
    Thrown if there is no user corresponding to the email address.
    example
    var actionCodeSettings = {
  url: 'https://www.example.com/?email=user@example.com',
  iOS: {
    bundleId: 'com.example.ios'
  },
  android: {
    packageName: 'com.example.android',
    installApp: true,
    minimumVersion: '12'
  },
  handleCodeInApp: true
};
firebase.auth().sendPasswordResetEmail(
    'user@example.com', actionCodeSettings)
    .then(function() {
      // Password reset email sent.
    })
    .catch(function(error) {
      // Error occurred. Inspect error.code.
    });

    Parameters

    • email: string

      The email address with the password to be reset.

    • Optional actionCodeSettings: ActionCodeSettings | null

      The action code settings. If specified, the state/continue URL will be set as the "continueUrl" parameter in the password reset link. The default password reset landing page will use this to display a link to go back to the app if it is installed. If the actionCodeSettings is not specified, no URL is appended to the action URL. The state URL provided must belong to a domain that is whitelisted by the developer in the console. Otherwise an error will be thrown. Mobile app redirects will only be applicable if the developer configures and accepts the Firebase Dynamic Links terms of condition. The Android package name and iOS bundle ID will be respected only if they are configured in the same Firebase Auth project used.

    Returns Promise<void>

sendSignInLinkToEmail

  • sendSignInLinkToEmail ( email :  string ,  actionCodeSettings :  ActionCodeSettings ) : Promise < void >

  • Sends a sign-in email link to the user with the specified email.

    The sign-in operation has to always be completed in the app unlike other out of band email actions (password reset and email verifications). This is because, at the end of the flow, the user is expected to be signed in and their Auth state persisted within the app.

    To complete sign in with the email link, call firebase.auth.Auth.signInWithEmailLink with the email address and the email link supplied in the email sent to the user.

    Error Codes

    auth/argument-error
    Thrown if handleCodeInApp is false.
    auth/invalid-email
    Thrown if the email address is not valid.
    auth/missing-android-pkg-name
    An Android package name must be provided if the Android app is required to be installed.
    auth/missing-continue-uri
    A continue URL must be provided in the request.
    auth/missing-ios-bundle-id
    An iOS Bundle ID must be provided if an App Store ID is provided.
    auth/invalid-continue-uri
    The continue URL provided in the request is invalid.
    auth/unauthorized-continue-uri
    The domain of the continue URL is not whitelisted. Whitelist the domain in the Firebase console.
    example
    var actionCodeSettings = {
  // The URL to redirect to for sign-in completion. This is also the deep
  // link for mobile redirects. The domain (www.example.com) for this URL
  // must be whitelisted in the Firebase Console.
  url: 'https://www.example.com/finishSignUp?cartId=1234',
  iOS: {
    bundleId: 'com.example.ios'
  },
  android: {
    packageName: 'com.example.android',
    installApp: true,
    minimumVersion: '12'
  },
  // This must be true.
  handleCodeInApp: true
};
firebase.auth().sendSignInLinkToEmail('user@example.com', actionCodeSettings)
    .then(function() {
      // The link was successfully sent. Inform the user. Save the email
      // locally so you don't need to ask the user for it again if they open
      // the link on the same device.
    })
    .catch(function(error) {
      // Some error occurred, you can inspect the code: error.code
    });

    Parameters

    • email: string

      The email account to sign in with.

    • actionCodeSettings: ActionCodeSettings

      The action code settings. The action code settings which provides Firebase with instructions on how to construct the email link. This includes the sign in completion URL or the deep link for mobile redirects, the mobile apps to use when the sign-in link is opened on an Android or iOS device. Mobile app redirects will only be applicable if the developer configures and accepts the Firebase Dynamic Links terms of condition. The Android package name and iOS bundle ID will be respected only if they are configured in the same Firebase Auth project used.

    Returns Promise<void>

setPersistence

  • setPersistence ( persistence :  Persistence ) : Promise < void >

  • Changes the current type of persistence on the current Auth instance for the currently saved Auth session and applies this type of persistence for future sign-in requests, including sign-in with redirect requests. This will return a promise that will resolve once the state finishes copying from one type of storage to the other. Calling a sign-in method after changing persistence will wait for that persistence change to complete before applying it on the new Auth state.

    This makes it easy for a user signing in to specify whether their session should be remembered or not. It also makes it easier to never persist the Auth state for applications that are shared by other users or have sensitive data.

    The default for web browser apps and React Native apps is 'local' (provided the browser supports this mechanism) whereas it is 'none' for Node.js backend apps.

    Error Codes (thrown synchronously)

    auth/invalid-persistence-type
    Thrown if the specified persistence type is invalid.
    auth/unsupported-persistence-type
    Thrown if the current environment does not support the specified persistence type.
    example
    firebase.auth().setPersistence(firebase.auth.Auth.Persistence.SESSION)
    .then(function() {
  // Existing and future Auth states are now persisted in the current
  // session only. Closing the window would clear any existing state even if
  // a user forgets to sign out.
});

    Parameters

    Returns Promise<void>

signInAndRetrieveDataWithCredential

  • signInAndRetrieveDataWithCredential ( credential :  AuthCredential ) : Promise < UserCredential >

    This method is deprecated. Use firebase.auth.Auth.signInWithCredential instead.

    Asynchronously signs in with the given credentials, and returns any available additional user information, such as user name.

    Error Codes

    auth/account-exists-with-different-credential
    Thrown if there already exists an account with the email address asserted by the credential. Resolve this by calling firebase.auth.Auth.fetchSignInMethodsForEmail and then asking the user to sign in using one of the returned providers. Once the user is signed in, the original credential can be linked to the user with firebase.User.linkWithCredential.
    auth/invalid-credential
    Thrown if the credential is malformed or has expired.
    auth/operation-not-allowed
    Thrown if the type of account corresponding to the credential is not enabled. Enable the account type in the Firebase Console, under the Auth tab.
    auth/user-disabled
    Thrown if the user corresponding to the given credential has been disabled.
    auth/user-not-found
    Thrown if signing in with a credential from firebase.auth.EmailAuthProvider.credential and there is no user corresponding to the given email.
    auth/wrong-password
    Thrown if signing in with a credential from firebase.auth.EmailAuthProvider.credential and the password is invalid for the given email, or if the account corresponding to the email does not have a password set.
    auth/invalid-verification-code
    Thrown if the credential is a firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider.credential and the verification code of the credential is not valid.
    auth/invalid-verification-id
    Thrown if the credential is a firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider.credential and the verification ID of the credential is not valid.
    example
    firebase.auth().signInAndRetrieveDataWithCredential(credential)

    Fails with an error if the email address is invalid or OTP in email link expires.

    Note: Confirm the link is a sign-in email link before calling this method firebase.auth.Auth.isSignInWithEmailLink.

    Error Codes

    auth/expired-action-code
    Thrown if OTP in email link expires.
    auth/invalid-email
    Thrown if the email address is not valid.
    auth/user-disabled
    Thrown if the user corresponding to the given email has been disabled.
    example
    firebase.auth().signInWithEmailLink(email, emailLink)
    .catch(function(error) {
      // Some error occurred, you can inspect the code: error.code
      // Common errors could be invalid email and invalid or expired OTPs.
    });

    Parameters

    • email: string

      The email account to sign in with.

    • Optional emailLink: string

      The optional link which contains the OTP needed to complete the sign in with email link. If not specified, the current URL is used instead.

    Returns Promise<UserCredential>

signInWithPhoneNumber

  • signInWithPhoneNumber ( phoneNumber :  string ,  applicationVerifier :  ApplicationVerifier ) : Promise < ConfirmationResult >

  • Asynchronously signs in using a phone number. This method sends a code via SMS to the given phone number, and returns a firebase.auth.ConfirmationResult. After the user provides the code sent to their phone, call firebase.auth.ConfirmationResult.confirm with the code to sign the user in.

    For abuse prevention, this method also requires a firebase.auth.ApplicationVerifier. The Firebase Auth SDK includes a reCAPTCHA-based implementation, firebase.auth.RecaptchaVerifier.

    Error Codes

    auth/captcha-check-failed
    Thrown if the reCAPTCHA response token was invalid, expired, or if this method was called from a non-whitelisted domain.
    auth/invalid-phone-number
    Thrown if the phone number has an invalid format.
    auth/missing-phone-number
    Thrown if the phone number is missing.
    auth/quota-exceeded
    Thrown if the SMS quota for the Firebase project has been exceeded.
    auth/user-disabled
    Thrown if the user corresponding to the given phone number has been disabled.
    auth/operation-not-allowed
    Thrown if you have not enabled the provider in the Firebase Console. Go to the Firebase Console for your project, in the Auth section and the Sign in Method tab and configure the provider.
    example
    // 'recaptcha-container' is the ID of an element in the DOM.
var applicationVerifier = new firebase.auth.RecaptchaVerifier(
    'recaptcha-container');
firebase.auth().signInWithPhoneNumber(phoneNumber, applicationVerifier)
    .then(function(confirmationResult) {
      var verificationCode = window.prompt('Please enter the verification ' +
          'code that was sent to your mobile device.');
      return confirmationResult.confirm(verificationCode);
    })
    .catch(function(error) {
      // Handle Errors here.
    });

    Parameters

    • phoneNumber: string

      The user's phone number in E.164 format (e.g. +16505550101).

    • applicationVerifier: ApplicationVerifier

    Returns Promise<ConfirmationResult>

signInWithPopup

  • signInWithPopup ( provider :  AuthProvider ) : Promise < UserCredential >

  • Authenticates a Firebase client using a popup-based OAuth authentication flow.

    If succeeds, returns the signed in user along with the provider's credential. If sign in was unsuccessful, returns an error object containing additional information about the error.

    Error Codes

    auth/account-exists-with-different-credential
    Thrown if there already exists an account with the email address asserted by the credential. Resolve this by calling firebase.auth.Auth.fetchSignInMethodsForEmail with the error.email and then asking the user to sign in using one of the returned providers. Once the user is signed in, the original credential retrieved from the error.credential can be linked to the user with firebase.User.linkWithCredential to prevent the user from signing in again to the original provider via popup or redirect. If you are using redirects for sign in, save the credential in session storage and then retrieve on redirect and repopulate the credential using for example firebase.auth.GoogleAuthProvider.credential depending on the credential provider id and complete the link.
    auth/auth-domain-config-required
    Thrown if authDomain configuration is not provided when calling firebase.initializeApp(). Check Firebase Console for instructions on determining and passing that field.
    auth/cancelled-popup-request
    Thrown if successive popup operations are triggered. Only one popup request is allowed at one time. All the popups would fail with this error except for the last one.
    auth/operation-not-allowed
    Thrown if the type of account corresponding to the credential is not enabled. Enable the account type in the Firebase Console, under the Auth tab.
    auth/operation-not-supported-in-this-environment
    Thrown if this operation is not supported in the environment your application is running on. "location.protocol" must be http or https.
    auth/popup-blocked
    Thrown if the popup was blocked by the browser, typically when this operation is triggered outside of a click handler.
    auth/popup-closed-by-user
    Thrown if the popup window is closed by the user without completing the sign in to the provider.
    auth/unauthorized-domain
    Thrown if the app domain is not authorized for OAuth operations for your Firebase project. Edit the list of authorized domains from the Firebase console.

    This method does not work in a Node.js environment.

    example
    // Creates the provider object.
var provider = new firebase.auth.FacebookAuthProvider();
// You can add additional scopes to the provider:
provider.addScope('email');
provider.addScope('user_friends');
// Sign in with popup:
auth.signInWithPopup(provider).then(function(result) {
  // The firebase.User instance:
  var user = result.user;
  // The Facebook firebase.auth.AuthCredential containing the Facebook
  // access token:
  var credential = result.credential;
}, function(error) {
  // The provider's account email, can be used in case of
  // auth/account-exists-with-different-credential to fetch the providers
  // linked to the email:
  var email = error.email;
  // The provider's credential:
  var credential = error.credential;
  // In case of auth/account-exists-with-different-credential error,
  // you can fetch the providers using this:
  if (error.code === 'auth/account-exists-with-different-credential') {
    auth.fetchSignInMethodsForEmail(email).then(function(providers) {
      // The returned 'providers' is a list of the available providers
      // linked to the email address. Please refer to the guide for a more
      // complete explanation on how to recover from this error.
    });
  }
});

    Parameters
