• Remove indentation in API Not Enabled error.
• Send App Check dummy token in header if there is an App Check getToken error.

Version 11.0.1 - October 22, 2024

Realtime Database

• Bumped @firebase/database-compat by a major version to ensure downstream libraries like firebase-admin don't automatically pick up the Node.js engines update in package.json.

Version 11.0.0 - October 21, 2024

• Vertex AI in Firebase is now Generally Available (GA) and can be used in production apps.

  Use the Vertex AI in Firebase SDK to call the Vertex AI Gemini API directly from your app. This client SDK is built specifically for use with Web apps, offering security options against unauthorized clients as well as integrations with other Firebase services.

  • If you're new to this SDK, visit the getting started guide.
  • If you used the preview version of the library, visit the migration guide to learn about some important updates.

• The SDK no longer supports versions of Node.js below version 18. engines fields in all package.json files have been updated to reflect this.

• Removed ES5 bundles. The minimum required ES version is now ES2017.

• Removed usage of undici and node-fetch dependencies in our Node.js bundles, replacing them with the native Node.js fetch implementation.

Authentication

• Added ReCAPTCHA Enterprise support for app verification during phone authentication.

Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK

• The FunctionsError class is now publicly exported.

Cloud Firestore

• Memory LRU GC is now enabled by default.

Version 10.13.2 - September 18, 2024

Authentication

• Suppress the use of the parameter referrerPolicy within fetch requests originating from Cloudflare Workers. Cloudflare Worker environments do not support this parameter and all Auth operations would silently fail. Fixes GitHub Issue #8355.

Cloud Firestore

• Fix an issue with metadata fromCache defaulting to true when listening to cache in multiple browser tabs. See GitHub PR #8343.

Version 10.13.1 - August 29, 2024

• Reverted the change that added the safevalues library, as it is not compatible with ES5 bundles. We will return to using safevalues when we migrate all our builds away from ES5.

• Properly handle the case in app-compat checks where window exists but self does not. (This occurs in Ionic Stencil's Jest preset, for example.)

• Fixed typos in documentation and some internal variables and parameters.

Version 10.12.4 - July 18, 2024

• The SDK now uses the safevalues library to sanitize HTML vulnerable to XSS.

Version 10.12.3 - July 3, 2024

• Updated browser environment detection logic in firebase/util to allow for the experimental use of FirebaseServerApp instances in edge runtimes. See GitHub Issue #8299.
• Guard the use of FinalizationRegistry in FirebaseServerApp initialization based on the availability of FinalizationRegistry in the JavaScript runtime. See GitHub Issue #8299.
• The FirebaseServerAppSettings.name field inherited from FirebaseAppSettings is now omitted instead of overloading the value as undefined. This fixes a TypeScript compilation error. For more information, see GitHub Issue #8336.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a metadata sync issue with multi-tab persistence and snapshot listeners. See GitHub Issue #8314.
• Fixed a typo in the package.json of webchannel-wrapper that caused bloom-blob to be missing the esm5 specifier. See GitHub Issue #8319.

Vertex AI in Firebase

• Update protobufjs transitive dependency from 6.11.3 to 7.2.6.
• Return to using xmlhttprequest for bidi-streams, as fetch streams seem to be having connection issues.
• Reduce code bundle size by 6.5 kB in applications that only use memory persistence (the default persistence mode). This bundle size regression was accidentally introduced in version 10.7.2.

Version 10.11.0 - April 11, 2024

• FirebaseServerApp is no longer JSON serializable.
• Upgraded undici version to 5.28.4 due to the low severity security issue CVE-2024-30260.

• Upgrade undici version to 5.28.3 due to the low severity security issue CVE-2024-24758.

Version 10.8.0 - February 1, 2024

• Fixed to catch transaction.done errors in readHeartbeatsFromIndexedDB and log them as a warning, because platform logging errors should never block user app functionality.

Authentication

• Added a firebase/auth/web-extension entry point for web extension developers. This entry point does not include any code that loads remote scripts, which are disallowed under Manifest V3. In extensions, this entry point should replace firebase/auth completely, and developers should not try to use both in the same app. See GitHub issue #7617.

Analytics

• Added two new consent options to the ConsentSettings interface: ad_personalization and ad_user_data.

Realtime Database

• Support special characters in query paths sent to getCountFromServer(...), getCount(...) (lite API), and getDocs(...) (lite API).

Version 10.7.1 - December 5, 2023

App Check

• Prevent App Check from logging "uncaught" cancelled promises. The cancelled promises are part of App Check's expected behavior, and their cancellation wasn't intended to produce errors or warnings. See GitHub issue #7805.

Authentication

• Added protections when enumerating an empty list in Auth's reading of IndexedDB results, as this causes errors in some macOS and iOS browser runtimes. See GitHub issue #7825.

Version 10.7.0 - November 27, 2023

• Replaced node-fetch dependency with the latest version of undici in Node.js SDK builds for Auth, Firestore, Cloud Functions, and Storage. See GitHub issue #7280.
• Introduced more safeguards to ensure that heartbeat objects queried from IndexedDB include a heartbeats field.

Authentication

• Exposed INVALID_LOGIN_CREDENTIALS as auth/invalid-credential error and updated docs for various Auth SDK methods.

Cloud Firestore

• Introduced fixes for high memory usage of Firestore in browsers. See GitHub issue #6118.

Version 10.6.0 - November 9, 2023

• Provide a more robust check to cover more cases of empty heartbeat data.

Authentication

• Add Sign in with Apple token revocation support.

Cloud Firestore

• Allow converter return value of undefined. See GitHub issue #7719.

Version 10.5.2 - October 26, 2023

Authentication

• Added the TotpMultiFactorGenerator and TotpSecret exports that were missing from the React Native entry point.

Cloud Firestore

• Rolled back the use of useFetchStreams, which had led to hanging queries. This bug was introduced in 10.4.0.

Version 10.5.1 - October 26, 2023

Authentication

• Fixed issues with FetchProvider in non-browser environments. See Github issue #7633.

Cloud Firestore

• Clarified API documentation around getFirestore() and initializeFirestore() functions.

Version 10.5.0 - October 12, 2023

Cloud Firestore

• Added support for sum and average aggregations.

• Added a default template type parameter to withConverter() methods to allow backward compatibility with version 9 of the SDK.

Version 10.4.0 - September 14, 2023

Caution: This version introduced a regression in Cloud Firestore that may cause queries to hang. Upgrade to 10.5.2 or later.

Cloud Firestore

• Added enablePersistentCacheIndexAutoCreation() function to enable automatic creation of local cache query indexes, which can improve performance of local query execution.

• Fixed an issue where Cloud Firestore was incorrectly using XHR instead of fetch for streaming response.

• Updated dependency grpc-js from version ~1.8.17 to ~1.9.0.

Version 10.3.1 - August 31, 2023

Cloud Firestore

• An internal refactor related to client-side index creation.

Version 10.3.0 - August 22, 2023

Authentication

• Fixed a regression in version 10.0.0 caused by adding a hard dependency on @react-native-async-storage/async-storage as a convenience for React Native developers. This caused unnecessary warnings during npm or Yarn install for non-React Native users, and in some cases, React version conflicts.

  10.3.0 will break React Native users who have converted to using getAuth() to initialize Authentication. React Native users who want persistent auth state must now explicitly import @react-native-async-storage/async-storage and provide it to initializeAuth() as an option like so:

  import { initializeAuth, getReactNativePersistence } from 'firebase/auth';
  import ReactNativeAsyncStorage from '@react-native-async-storage/async-storage';
  const auth = initializeAuth(app, {
    persistence: getReactNativePersistence(ReactNativeAsyncStorage)
  });
  // getAuth() can be used any time after initialization
  

  See Github issue #7522.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a bug that caused high memory usage in Safari. See Github issue #6118.

Version 10.2.0 - August 17, 2023

Authentication

• Added a validatePassword method for validating passwords against the password policy configured for the project or a tenant. This method returns a status object that can be used to display the requirements of the password policy and whether each one was met.

• Fixed a bug in the onAuthStateChanged canceller. See Github issue #7383.

• The SDK now raises an error if initializeRecaptchaConfig is called in a Node.js environment.

Cloud Firestore

• Updated @grpc/proto-loader from v0.6.13 to v0.7.8. This addresses a vulnerability in an older version of the transitive dependency protobufjs.

Version 10.1.0 - July 20, 2023

Authentication

• Implemented authStateReady(), which returns a promise that resolves immediately when the initial auth state is settled and currentUser is available. When the promise is resolved, currentUser might be a valid user or null if there is no user signed in currently.

• Unpinned the version of the dependency @react-native-async-storage/async-storage so that React Native users have more control over which version of it they use. See Github issue #7448.

Cloud Firestore

• Updated the grpc dependency to the latest version. See Github PR #7452.

• Fixed issue where count and firestore-lite API queries did not work with named databases. See Github PR #7440.

Version 10.0.0 - July 6, 2023

Caution: This version introduced a regression in Authentication that may result in npm/Yarn install warnings or dependency conflicts (GitHub issue #7570). Upgrade to 10.3.0 or later.

This version (v10.0.0) of the Firebase JavaScript SDK contains breaking changes.

The Firebase JavaScript SDK v10.0.0 has a number of breaking changes related to the React Native bundle for Authentication, as well as typings changes across several products.

Authentication

• Removed explicit firebase/auth/react-native entry point. The React Native bundle should be automatically picked up by React Native build tools which recognize the react-native fields in package.json (at the top level and in exports). See Github PR #7138.

• Changed getAuth() in the React Native bundle to default to importing AsyncStorage from @react-native-async-storage/async-storage instead of from the react-native core package (which has recently removed it). See Github PR #7128.

• Changed the type of ParsedToken values from any to unknown.

• Reordered RecaptchaVerifier parameters so auth is the first parameter.

Realtime Database

• Updated type of action parameter for DataSnapshot#forEach.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed updateDoc() typing issue by adding a second type parameter to FirestoreDataConverter. See Github PR #7310.

• Changed UpdateData to expand support for types with index signatures. See Github PR #7318.

• Fixed an issue where localCache was not copied as part of Settings.

• Fixed some incorrectly generated source maps for the following bundles: index.esm2017.js, index.cjs.js, index.node.mjs, and index.browser.esm2017.js (lite SDK only).

Version 9.23.0 - June 21, 2023

Cloud Firestore

• Exposed the MultiDB API for public preview. See Github PR #7356.

Version 9.22.2 - June 8, 2023

• Fixed the types path for compat/app to deliver the proper typings to the compat packages. See Github issue #7279.

Cloud Firestore

• Fix potentially false warning message when configuring host in both settings() and connectFirestoreEmulator(). See Github issue #7331.

Version 9.22.1 - May 25, 2023

Cloud Firestore

• Updated dependencies to enable setting experimentalLongPollingOptions.timeoutSeconds. See Github PR #7311.

Version 9.22.0 - May 12, 2023

• Made the error more helpful when getApp() is called before initializeApp(). See Github PR #7263.

• Improved error handling for heartbeat read/write errors. See Github issue #6871.

Authentication

• The SDK now allows port numbers in authDomain. See Github issue #7233.

Cloud Firestore

• Enabled long-polling networking mode auto detection by default. It can be explicitly disabled by setting FirestoreSettings.experimentalForceLongPolling to false. See Github PR #7236.

• Added the ability to configure the long-polling GET request timeout using the new experimentalLongPollingOptions.timeoutSeconds setting. See Github PR #7176.

Note: experimentalLongPollingOptions.timeoutSeconds is incorrectly configured in version 9.22.0. It is fixed in v9.22.1. Please upgrade to v9.22.1 or later to use this feature.

Version 9.21.0 - April 27, 2023

Analytics

• Added method getGoogleAnalyticsClientId() to retrieve an unique identifier for a web client. This allows users to log purchase and other events from their backends using Google Analytics 4 Measurement Protocol and to connect them to actions taken on the client within their Firebase web app. getGoogleAnalyticsClientId() simplifies this event recording process. See Github PR #7158.

App Check

• Added method getLimitedUseToken() which requests a Firebase App Check token. This method should be used to authorize requests to non-Firebase backends. See Github PR #7169.

Cloud Firestore

• Created MemoryLruGarbageCollector a new LRU garbage document collector for memory cache. See Github PR #6943.

• Optimized the local cache synchronization logic to reduce the number of billed document reads when documents were deleted on the server while the client was not actively listening to the query (e.g. while the client was offline). See Github PR #7229.

• Fixed stack overflow caused by deeply nested server timestamps. See Github PR #7139.

• Simplified the internal handling of aggregation results. See Github PR #7170.

• Updated exports of webchannel-wrapper (a Firestore dependency) to conform to Node ESM standards. See Github PR #7228.

Authentication

• Increased the popup poller timeout to 8s to support blocking functions for Firefox. See Github PR #7140.

Version 9.20.0 - April 18, 2023

App Check

• Fixed ReCAPTCHA error handling so that the SDK now catches all ReCAPTCHA errors and then prevents the SDK from making a request to the App Check exchange endpoint, which prevents unnecessary 403 errors and throttling. See Github PR #7203.

Authentication

• Added App Check support in Authentication.

• Added ReCAPTCHA Enterprise support.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a bug that sometimes prevented aggregations from being run when multi-tab persistence was enabled.

Version 9.19.1 - March 31, 2023

Authentication

• Fixed typings for TotpMultiFactorGenerator. This fixes a reversion in 9.19.0. See Github issue #7174.

Version 9.19.0 - March 30, 2023

Caution: This version introduced a regression in Authentication that caused TypeScript build failures (GitHub issue #7174). Upgrade to 9.19.1 or later.

Authentication

• Support TOTP as a multi-factor option in Firebase Auth/GCIP. See Github PR #7146.

• Modify _fail(...) to use AuthErrorCode.NETWORK_REQUEST_FAILED and accept an error message. See Github PR #7125.

Analytics

• Use the Trusted Types API when composing the gtag URL. See Github PR #7155.

Cloud Firestore

• Introduced additional configurations for Firestore SDK Cache. See Github PR #7015.

• Verify DOMException exists before referencing it. See Github PR #7130.

Version 9.18.0 - March 16, 2023

Authentication

• Fixed a bug where updateCurrentUser set user metadata to undefined. See Github issue #7066.

Cloud Firestore

• Added support for disjunctions in OR queries. See Github PR #7053.

• Improved debug logging of GrpcConnection and WebChannelConnection. See Github PR #7076.

• Updated check for an IndexedDB bug in Safari to include navigator.userAgent when determining whether to trigger a workaround. This is helpful for Cordova apps that lack appVersion in their webview but need to apply the workaround. See Github issue #6509.

Version 9.17.2 - March 2, 2023

Authentication

• Modified _fail(...) to use AuthErrorCode.INTERNAL_ERROR and accept an error message. See Github PR #7038.

Realtime Database

• Fixed issue where Vite with Astro could not resolve the correct output bundle. See Github PR #7055.

Cloud Firestore

• Relaxed query validation performed by the SDK. See Github PR #7024.

• Refactored platform-specific logic to create TextEncoder and TextDecoder objects. See Github PR #7018.

• Modified all base64 decoding functions to explicitly throw an error on invalid input, as some previous implementations silently accepted invalid input. See Github PR #7019.

• Refactored the aggregation implementation to support future aggregate functions. See Github PR #6952.

• Implemented closed property in the reader returned from toByteStreamReaderHelper which previously only raised an unimplemented error. See Github PR #7058.

Version 9.17.1 - February 3, 2023

• Moved exports.default fields to always be the last field. This fixes a bug introduced in 9.17.0 that prevented some bundlers and frameworks from building. For these build failures, the error text is: "Default condition should be last one".

Version 9.17.0 - February 2, 2023

Caution: Version 9.17.0 contains a bug causing errors in build tools that use the exports field in package.json. If you are seeing an error with the text "Default condition should be last one", upgrade to version 9.17.1 or later.

• Added browser CJS entry points (expected by Jest when using JSDOM mode). See Github PR #6981.

Authentication

• Exposed TOKEN_EXPIRED error when multi-factor authentication (MFA) unenroll logs out the user. See Github PR #6973.

Realtime Database

• Fixed issue where hostname set by connectDatabaseEmulator was being overridden by longpolling response. See Github issue #4603.

Cloud Firestore

• Reduced memory usage by applying query check sooner in remote document cache. See Github PR #6989.

Cloud Storage

• Fixed issue where users were unable to check if an error was an instance of StorageError. See Github issue #6944.

Version 9.16.0 - January 19, 2023

• Allow users to specify their environment as node or browser to override Firebase's runtime environment detection and force the SDK to act as if it were in the respective environment.

  Example:

  export __FIREBASE_DEFAULTS__='{"forceEnvironment":"browser"}'
  

• Reformat a comment that causes compile errors in some build toolchains. See Github issue #6838.

• Removed unused peerDependencies in @firebase/auth-interop-types. This should remove installation warnings for firebase-admin users. See Github PR #6940.

Authentication

• Added a fix to minimize a potential race condition between initialization of the Authentication SDK and signInWithRedirect. See Github issue #6827.

Realtime Database

• Fixed an issue where connectDatabaseToEmulator was sometimes called twice during a hot reload See Github issue #6853.

Cloud Firestore

• Updated internal logic behind AND and OR queries to ensure consistency with older implicit AND queries. See Github PR #6896.

• Fixed an issue that stops some performance optimization being applied. See Github PR #6893.

• Fixed an issue where pause throws an error when a request is in flight. See Github issue #6935.

Version 9.15.0 - December 8, 2022

• Upgraded TypeScript in each individual package to 4.7.4. The earlier update in version 9.13.0 upgraded TypeScript only in the root.

• Fixed a bug that caused Firebase SDKs to throw an error in Firefox browsers when third-party cookies are blocked. See Github issue #6801.

• Updated firebase/[product] entry point bundles to conform to Node.js ES module specifications.

Realtime Database

• Added support for startAfter and endBefore query params to the REST API and wire protocol. This change does not affect the existing public API. See Github PR #6706.

Cloud Firestore

• Functions in the Firestore package that return QueryConstraints (for example: where(...), limit(...), and orderBy(...)) now return a more specific type, which extends QueryConstraint. See Github PR #6694.

Version 9.14.0 - November 10, 2022

Version 9.13.0 - October 27, 2022

• Upgraded TypeScript to 4.7.4. See Github PR #6682.

Cloud Messaging

• Exposed icon field for the notification payload. See Github PR #6722.

Cloud Storage

• Fixed issue where clients using Node.js v18 would use the native Blob object, which is incompatible with node-fetch. See Github PR #6705.

Version 9.12.1 - October 12, 2022

• Added error catching for when the SDK checks __FIREBASE_DEFAULTS__ in order to not block other app functionality on error. See Github issue #6677.

Analytics

• Corrected id type in setUserId. See Github PR #6671.

Cloud Storage

• Cleared retry timeouts when uploads are paused/canceled. See Github PR #6667.

Version 9.12.0 - October 11, 2022

• Removed __FIREBASE_DEFAULTS_PATH__ option, as the current implementation caused Webpack warnings. Fixed process.env check to be compatible with environments where process exists but process.env does not. See Github issue #6660.

• Fixed IPv6 addresses in emulator autoinit for Cloud Firestore, Realtime Database, Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK, and Cloud Storage. See Github issue #6673.

Cloud Firestore

• Set withCredentials=true when making requests via non-streaming RPCs, as is done for streaming RPCs. See Github PR #6643.

• Added functionality to auto-initialize project config and emulator settings from global defaults. This allows the SDK to work with the upcoming framework-aware Firebase tools (currently an experimental release).

App Check

• Fixed timer issues in the App Check SDK that caused the token to fail to refresh after it had expired, or had caused rapid repeated requests while attempting to do so. See Github issue #6373.

Cloud Firestore

• Added getCountFromServer() (getCount() in the Lite SDK), which fetches the number of documents in the result set without actually downloading the documents.

• Fixed a time travel issue across multiple tabs. See Github issue #6511.

Version 9.10.0 - September 15, 2022

Authentication

• Updated custom claim type of ParsedToken to be any. This more accurately reflects that a JWT may contain any valid JSON object. See Github issue #6553.

Cloud Firestore

• Enabled encodeInitMessageHeaders to transition the Firestore client from encoding HTTP Headers via the httpHeadersOverwriteParam to the request's POST payload. Note, this requires Cloud Firestore Emulator v1.14.4 or newer. See Github PR #6107.

Version 9.9.4 - September 1, 2022

Authentication

• Fixed proactive refresh logic in Authentication when Realtime Database, Cloud Firestore, or Cloud Storage are in use. See Github PR #6544.

Realtime Database

• Added experimental support for Deno. See Github PR #6560.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a bug that threw a FAILED_PRECONDITION error when writing to a deleted document in a transaction. See Github issue #6550.

• On browsers that support IndexedDB v3, we now invoke transaction.commit() and IndexedDB.getAll() to speed up data processing.

• Cloud Firestore queries are now sent to the backend before the SDK starts local processing, which reduces overall Query latency.

Version 9.6.6 - February 3, 2022

Authentication

• Fixed a bug where the user.providerData field was being improperly initialized. See firebaseui-web Github issue #917.

Cloud Firestore

• Added to the version 9 upgrade guide important details about a potential breaking change in which the property DocumentSnapshot.exists has been changed from a property to a method. If your version 8-based app uses the exists property, you must refactor your code as part of the upgrade to version 9.

Cloud Messaging

• Fixed an uncaught rejection in isSupported() when the environment does not support IndexedDB's open() method. See Github issue #5868.

Version 8.10.1 - January 28, 2022

Note: This is an emergency security update for any users who are still on version 8 of the SDK and are unable to migrate to v9. The v8 SDK is updated only for emergency security fixes, and does not benefit from any other bug fixes or new features. The latest version of the Firebase JS SDK is still 9.6.5 (see below).

• Updated node-fetch dependency due to a security issue (CVE-2022-0235).

Version 9.6.5 - January 27, 2022

Version 9.6.3 - January 13, 2022

Cloud Firestore

• The Node.js SDK now bundles its internal .proto files into the code instead of reading them from the filesystem at runtime. This prevents errors like no such file or directory in certain types of deployments. See Github issue #5823.

Cloud Messaging

• Fixed a bug where the fcmMessageId field in the message payload was incorrectly defined as fcm_message_id.

• Add a CJS bundle for messaging/sw. This enables some SSR frameworks to run their Node.js pipelines without erroring. See Github issue #5854.

• Fixed an issue that caused DocumentReference objects in DocumentSnapshot instances to be returned with the custom converter of the original DocumentReference.

Version 8.0.1 - November 5, 2020

Cloud Messaging

• Fixed an issue where a silent-push warning was displayed along with the message shown by ServiceWorkerRegistration.showNotification. Added a timeout for the onBackgroundMessage hook so that silent-push warnings won't show if ServiceWorkerRegistration.showNotification is called inside the hook within 1 second. See GitHub issue #3725.

Testing SDK

• Added a withFunctionTriggersDisabled method which runs a user-provided setup function with emulated Cloud Functions triggers disabled. This can be used to import data into the Realtime Database or Cloud Firestore emulators without triggering locally emulated functions. This method only works with Firebase CLI version 8.13.0 or higher.

Version 8.0.0 - October 26, 2020

• Breaking change: browser fields in package.json files now point to ESM bundles instead of CJS bundles. Users who are using ESM imports must now use the default import instead of a namespace import.

  Before 8.0.0

  import * as firebase from 'firebase/app'
  

  After 8.0.0

  import firebase from 'firebase/app'
  

  Code that uses require('firebase/app') or require('firebase') will still work, but in order to get proper typings (for code completion, for example) users should change these require calls to require('firebase/app').default or require('firebase').default. This is because the SDK now uses typings for the ESM bundle, and the different bundles share one typings file.

Cloud Firestore

• Removed the undocumented Firestore.logLevel property.

• Breaking change: Removed deprecated experimentalTabSynchronization settings. To enable multi-tab synchronization, use synchronizeTabs instead.

• This release removes runtime type validations that are covered by TypeScript. Developers can use our TypeScript types to validate API usage.

• Breaking change: Removed the timestampsInSnapshots option from FirestoreSettings. Now, Cloud Firestore always returns Timestamp values for all timestamp values.

• Added a useEmulator(host, port) method to Cloud Firestore.

• Removed excess validation of null and NaN values in query filters. This more closely aligns the SDK with the Cloud Firestore backend, which has always accepted null and NaN for all operators.

Cloud Storage

• This release removes runtime type validations that are covered by TypeScript. Developers can use our TypeScript types to validate API usage.

Realtime Database

• Added a useEmulator(host, port) method to Realtime Database.

Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK

• Added a useEmulator(host, port) method to the Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK.

Version 7.24.0 - October 15, 2020

Authentication

• Added the ability to configure the SDK to communicate with the Firebase Emulator.

Cloud Firestore

• Added a new experimentalAutoDetectLongPolling to FirestoreSettings. When enabled, the SDK's underlying transport layer automatically detects if long-polling should be used. This is very similar to experimentalForceLongPolling, but only uses long-polling if required.

• Fixed a potential issue in our internal queue that could have allowed API calls to be executed out of order.

Testing SDK

• Changed to not delete the uid property from user auth object in initializeTestApp(). See GitHub issue #3920.

• Fixed the typing for custom claims.

Version 7.23.0 - October 8, 2020

Analytics

• The SDK now warns instead of throwing an error if it detects a browser environment where Analytics does not work.

Cloud Firestore

• The SDK now includes more information in the error message for failed IndexedDB transactions.

Performance Monitoring

• Moved the loggingEnabled check to wait until performance initialization finishes, which prevents the SDK from dropping custom traces right after getting the performance object.
• Throws an exception when startTime or duration is not a positive value in the trace.record() API.

Testing SDK

• Added stronger types to the options.auth option for initializeTestApp().

Version 7.22.1 - October 5, 2020

Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK

• Fixed a bug introduced in 7.21.1 that causes callable functions to throw an error in some environments.

Version 7.22.0 - October 1, 2020

Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK

• Users can now set a custom domain for callable functions.

Version 7.21.1 - September 24, 2020

Caution: Versions 7.21.1 and 7.22.0 contain an issue in the Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK that causes callable functions to throw an error. If you use callable functions, upgrade to version 7.22.1 or later.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue that prevented waitForPendingWrites() from resolving in background tabs when multi-tab is used. See GitHub issue #3816.

• Fixed a "Comparison with -0" lint warning for customers that build from source. See GitHub issue #3814.

Authentication

• Fixed an encoding issue in the Authentication CDN script for environments that require UTF-8, for example, Chrome extensions. See GitHub issue #414.

Version 7.21.0 - September 17, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Added not-in and != query operators for use with .where().
  • not-in finds documents where a specified field’s value is not in a specified array.
  • != finds documents where a specified field's value does not equal the specified value. Neither query operator will match documents where the specified field is not present.
• The SDK now uses FirestoreError instead of Error in onSnapshot*() error callbacks.
• Fixed a bug where CollectionReference.add() called FirestoreDataConverter.toFirestore() twice instead of once. See GitHub issue #3742

Realtime Database

• Fixed detection of Admin SDK context.

Testing SDK

• Fixed a bug preventing users from testing Realtime Database with both the Admin SDK and the client JS SDK.

Version 7.20.0 - September 10, 2020

Analytics

• For apps using v7.20.0 and later, Firebase dynamically fetches the measurementId when your app initializes Analytics. Having this ID in your Firebase config object is optional, but it does serve as a fallback in the rare case that the dynamic fetch fails. Learn more about this field in the Analytics getting started page.

Realtime Database

• The SDK can now infer a default database URL if none is provided in the config.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a bug where, if a user change happened while the network connection was disabled, the client did not raise snapshots from cache.

Cloud Messaging

• The SDK no longer opens non-origin links, fixing a potential security issue.

Version 7.19.1 - August 27, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Added merge option to firestore.settings(), which merges the provided settings with settings from a previous call. This addresses GitHub issue #3354.

Testing SDK

• Fixed an issue with assertFails(). See GitHub issue #3671

Version 7.19.0 - August 20, 2020

Testing SDK

• Released @firebase/rules-unit-testing to replace the @firebase/testing package. The new package is API compatible but has the following breaking behavior changes:
  • assertFails() now fails only on PERMISSION DENIED errors, not any error.
  • initializeAdminApp() now relies on firebase-admin rather than imitating the Admin SDK.

Performance Monitoring

• Adds a check to silently prevent Performance Monitoring from initializing if the required indexedDB.open() API is not available in the environment.

Cloud Firestore

• terminate() can now be retried if it fails with an IndexedDB exception. See GitHub issue #2755.

• Enabled fallback for auto-generated identifiers in environments that support crypto but not crypto.getRandomValues. See GitHub PR #3487.

Version 7.18.0 - August 13, 2020

Cloud Messaging

• Added onBackgroundMessage, which is called regardless of whether or not a notification is displayed.

• getToken now accepts an options object that includes an optional vapid key and an optional service worker registration.

• Deprecated setBackgroundMessageHandler. Use the new API onBackgroundMessage instead.

• Deprecated useVapidKey and useServiceWorker. Use getToken to set these values instead.

• Deprecated onTokenRefresh which is a no-op API currently.

Cloud Firestore

• The SDK no longer crashes with the error "The database connection is closing". Instead, the individual operations that cause this error may be rejected. Addresses GitHub issue #3495.

• Fixed a bug that caused slow retries for IndexedDB operations even when a webpage re-entered the foreground.

Analytics

• analytics.isSupported() now returns Promise<false> for extension environments.

Version 7.17.2 - August 6, 2020

Realtime Database

• Added interface Database which is implemented by FirebaseDatabase. This allows consumer SDKs (such as the Firebase Admin SDK) to export Realtime Database types as an interface.

Cloud Firestore

• Upgraded to the latest version of Google Closure Library and Compiler. Developers will not need to make any changes to their code to handle this change.

Version 7.17.1 - July 24, 2020

Analytics

• Added an omitted dependency update that caused Analytics to error on initialization. Addresses GitHub issue #3469.

Version 7.17.0 - July 23, 2020

Caution: Version 7.17.0 contains an issue that prevents Analytics from initializing. Please upgrade to version 7.17.1 or later.

Analytics

• Added an analytics.isSupported() method which returns true if the current browser context supports Analytics. This can used in a conditional to prevent initialization of Analytics in environments that don't support it. This check also automatically runs when Analytics is initialized (firebase.analytics()) and if it finds an unsupported environment, throws an error advising developers to use isSupported(). Addresses GitHub issue #2393.

Cloud Storage

• Error messages for backend errors now include the backend's response message.

Version 7.16.1 - July 16, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• The SDK no longer crashes if an IndexedDB failure occurs when unsubscribing from a Query.

• Removed a delay that prevented Firestore from immediately reestablishing a network connection if a connectivity change occurred while the app was in the background.

Realtime Database

• Instead of using production auth, the SDK will use test credentials to connect to the Emulator when Realtime Database is used via the Firebase Admin SDK. Fixes GitHub issue #3144.

Cloud Storage

• Updated the TypeScript types for all APIs using Observers to allow callback omission. Fixes GitHub issue #3158.

Authentication

• Added the browser field in package.json.

Version 7.16.0 - July 09, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Added support for set() with merge options when using FirestoreDataConverter.

• Re-added the React Native bundle, which allows Cloud Firestore to be used without btoa/atob polyfills.

• Removed internal wrapper around our public API that was meant to prevent incorrect SDK usage for JavaScript users, but caused the SDK to stop working in IE11. See GitHub issue #3305.

FCM

• Fixed an issue where we tried to update the token for every getToken() call because we don't save the updated token in the IndexedDB.

• Fixed an RxJS incompatibility issue by adding support for onMessage so the internal callback can work with RxJS's Subscriber. See GitHub issue #3142.

Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK

• Clear timeout after a successful response or after the request is canceled. Fixes GitHub issue #3289.

Version 7.15.5 - June 25, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a bug that sometimes caused Cloud Firestore operations to fail during an auth token change. See GitHub issue #3179

Version 7.15.4 - June 20, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Removed the React Native entry point due to an issue in our internal library. For Cloud Firestore in React Native, use the browser build and add necessary polyfills. See GitHub issue #2667

Version 7.15.3 - June 19, 2020

Caution: Version 7.15.3 contains an issue that prevents Cloud Firestore from working in React Native. Please upgrade to 7.15.4 or later.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue that prevented Cloud Firestore from working in React Native. See GitHub issue #2667

Version 7.15.2 - June 18, 2020

Realtime Database

• Added an internal HTTP header to the WebSocket connection.

Cloud Firestore

• Updated grpc-js to version ^1.0.0.

Version 7.15.1 - June 11, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue that prevented the client from connecting to the backend immediately after a user signed in. See GitHub issue #2923.

• Fixed a regression introduced in PR #3048 that changed the context.path variable from Path|null to undefined|null. See GitHub issue #3172.

Version 7.15.0 - June 04, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Added an experimentalForceOwningTab setting that can be used to enable persistence in environments without localStorage, which allows persistence to be used in Web Workers. See GitHub issue #983.

• All known failure cases for IndexedDB-related crashes have now been addressed. Instead of crashing the client, IndexedDB failures result in rejected operations (for example, rejected Writes or errored Query listeners). If these rejections surface in your app, you can retry these operations when IndexedDB access is restored. IndexedDB failures that occur due to background work are automatically retried.

  If you continue to see IndexedDB-related crashes, please provide feedback GitHub issue #2755.

Version 7.14.6 - May 29, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue that could cause Cloud Firestore to temporarily go offline when a Window visibility event occurred.

• Added support for calling FirebaseFirestore.settings with { ignoreUndefinedProperties: true }. When this parameter is set, Cloud Firestore ignores undefined properties inside objects rather than rejecting the API call.

Version 7.14.5 - May 21, 2020

Realtime Database

• Fixed a Realtime Database URL parsing bug to support domains with more than 3 components.

Version 7.14.4 - May 14, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a regression introduced in v7.14.2 that incorrectly applied a FieldValue.increment in combination with set({...}, {merge: true}).

Version 7.14.3 - May 07, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Cloud Firestore now rejects onSnapshot() listeners if they cannot be registered in IndexedDB. Previously, these errors crashed the client.

Version 7.14.2 - April 23, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Firestore now rejects write operations if they cannot be persisted in IndexedDB. Previously, these errors crashed the client.

• Fixed a source of IndexedDB-related crashes for tabs that receive multi-tab notifications while the file system is locked.

FCM

• Changed to compare hostname instead of the entire URL to decide if there is a matching window client. See GitHub issue #390.

Version 7.14.1 - April 16, 2020

Cloud Storage

• Fixed an issue that occurred when users tried to retrieve data from multiple Cloud Storage instances.

Authentication

• Fixed a bug that occurred when users set persistence to LOCAL in a worker environment. See GitHub issue #2903.

Version 7.14.0 - April 9, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Replaced grpc with @grpc/grpc-js in the Node.js builds. As a result, the minimum supported NodeJS version is now 8.13.0.

Realtime Database

• Added ServerValue.increment() to support atomic field value increments without transactions.

Performance Monitoring

• Updated internal performance event transport mechanism.

Version 7.13.2 - April 2, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a regression introduced by a crypto change in 7.13.0 that breaks Firestore in IE 11. See GitHub issue #2827.

• Fixed an issue that causes excessive reads in large changesets over slow connections. See GitHub issue #2683.

• Fixed an issue causing WriteBatch.commit() to resolve one loop later than .set and .update. See GitHub issue #2822.

FCM

• Fixed an issue introduced in 7.7.0, when FCM switched to provide base64-encoded VAPID keys to PushManager for push subscription. For backward compatibility, the SDK has switched back to using VAPID keys in type ArrayBuffer. See Github issue #2712.

Version 7.13.1 - March 27, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Removed a dangling comma in package.json.

Version 7.13.0 - March 26, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Added a memory-only firestore build. Instead of persisting data in the IndexedDB, it keeps it in memory. This build is about 14% smaller than the full featured build because it doesn't have IndexedDB related code. If you don't care about persisting data across sessions, or your code runs in environments that don't support IndexedDB, use this build to reduce your application size. It is available under a special import path. You can import it this way:

  import * as firebase from 'firebase/app';
  import 'firebase/firestore/memory';
  
  
  // Don't change the format for any other products.
  import 'firebase/auth';
  // etc.

  Or if using the CDN:

  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.13.0/firebase-app.js"></script>
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.13.0/firebase-firestore.memory.js"></script>
  <!-- Don't change the format for any other products. -->
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.13.0/firebase-auth.js"></script>
  <!-- etc. -->

Analytics

• Added convenient enums and function overloads to support enhanced ecommerce events.

Version 7.12.0 - March 19, 2020

• Added two methods for logging:
  • firebase.setLogLevel(), which sets the level above which Firebase log messages will be shown.
  • firebase.onLog(), which adds a user-specified callback run on each log event. The callback has access to log level, message, and name of the package (e.g. "@firebase/firestore") that generated the log message.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue where the number value -0.0 would lose its sign when stored in Cloud Firestore.

Version 7.11.0 - March 12, 2020

Authentication

• Added multi-factor authentication support for Google Cloud Identity Platform projects.

Version 7.10.0 - March 5, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Implemented Timestamp.valueOf() so that Timestamp objects can be compared for relative ordering using the JavaScript arithmetic comparison operators. Fixes GitHub issue #2632.

Version 7.9.3 - February 28, 2020

Cloud Storage

• Fixed an issue introduced in 7.9.2 where Cloud Storage could throw a CORS error (GitHub issue).

Version 7.9.2 - February 27, 2020

Caution: This build introduced a regression where Cloud Storage could throw a CORS error (GitHub issue). Please upgrade to 7.9.3 or later.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue where OnlineState value was mangled and was not being parsed correctly.

Version 7.9.1 - February 21, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue introduced in 7.9.0 where minified Cloud Firestore Node and CJS bundles do not work.

Version 7.9.0 - February 20, 2020

Caution: This build introduced a regression where Node and CJS bundles for Cloud Firestore do not work. Please upgrade to 7.9.1 or later.

Cloud Firestore

• The minified version of the Cloud Firestore library, added as an experimental option in 7.8.0, is now the default Cloud Firestore bundle. The steps listed in the 7.8.0 release notes are no longer necessary to get the minified bundle. This minification currently reduces the total bundle size by approximately 15% as of this build.

• Fixed an issue where auth credentials were not respected in Cordova environments. See Github issue #2626.

• Fixed a performance regression introduced by the addition of Query.limitToLast(n: number) in Firestore 1.7.0 (Firebase 7.3.0). See Github issue #2620.

FCM

• Fix an issue where service workers do not reliably update after upgrading to a new version of Firebase. See Github issue #2590.

Version 7.8.2 - February 13, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue where CollectionReference.add() would reject custom types when using withConverter(). Github issue #2606.

Version 7.8.1 - February 6, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fix a bug causing intermittent errors when the same app is open in multiple tabs. Addresses Github issue #2555.

Version 7.8.0 - January 30, 2020

Caution: The minified bundle is no longer provided as a separate file starting with 7.9.0, but replaces the default bundle. These instructions are not needed to import the minified bundle in versions 7.9.0 and above.

Cloud Firestore

• Experimental: Added an alternative minified import for the firestore package. Users who want to try this experimental import can do it this way:

  import * as firebase from 'firebase/app';
  import '@firebase/firestore/dist/index.cjs.min';
  
  // Don't change the format for any other products.
  import 'firebase/auth';
  // etc.

  Or if using the CDN:

  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.8.0/firebase-app.js"></script>
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.8.0/firebase-firestore.min.js"></script>
  <!-- Don't change the format for any other products. -->
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.8.0/firebase-auth.js"></script>
  <!-- etc. -->

Version 7.7.0 - January 16, 2020

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue where auth credentials were not respected in some Firefox or Chrome extensions. See Github issue #1491.

• Firestore previously required that every document read in a transaction must also be written. This requirement has been removed, and you can now read a document in a transaction without writing to it.

Performance Monitoring

• Updated internal transport protocol from proto2 to proto3.

Authentication

• Added missing constructor for SAMLAuthProvider type.

Version 7.6.2 - January 9, 2020

Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK

• Fixed a bug causing notification permissions requests to pop up when using functions.httpsCallable().

Realtime Database

• Reverted a change causing slow update performance as reported in Github issue #2487.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue where auth credentials were not respected in certain browser environments (Electron 7, IE11 in trusted zone, UWP apps). Addresses Github issue #1491.

Version 7.6.1 - December 18, 2019

Realtime Database

• Fixed an internal typing issue where the library firebase-admin, which depends on @firebase/database, failed to compile.

Version 7.6.0 - December 12, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Added support for storing and retrieving custom types in Cloud Firestore. Added support for strongly typed collections, documents, and queries. You can now use withConverter() to supply a custom data converter that will convert between Cloud Firestore data and your custom type.

• Added a stronger environment check that specifically checks for the existence of process.env. Addresses Github issue #2404.

FCM

• getToken() now automatically requests notification permission if permission was set to "default".

• Temporarily suppressing errors occurring on reset of notifications permissions, pending a backend solution. Addresses Github issue #2364.

Testing SDK

• Fixed a bug where Testing SDK was unable to connect to the Cloud Firestore emulator. Addresses Github issue #2417.

Version 7.5.2 - December 6, 2019

Realtime Database

• Fixed an issue introduced in 7.5.1 where @firebase/component is not listed as a dependency. It caused "Cannot find module @firebase/component" in the firebase-admin package, which depends on Realtime Database.

Version 7.5.1 - December 5, 2019

• Fixed an issue where typing undefined in the IDE prompts to auto-import it from the firebase package. Addresses #2203 (GitHub link). Thanks camsjams for the contribution!

• Fixed a bug where RxFire's objectVal will return an empty object if the result of snapshot.val() is not an object.

Remote Config

• Fixed a bug where the promises returned by fetch() and fetchAndActivate() were not rejected with errors caused by indexeddb operations. You can now handle these errors in the error handler of the returned promise.

Version 7.5.0 - November 21, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Improved the performance of repeatedly executed queries when persistence is enabled. Recently executed queries should see dramatic improvements. This benefit is reduced if changes accumulate while the query is inactive. Queries that use the limit() API may not always benefit, depending on the accumulated changes.

Version 7.4.0 - November 14, 2019

Authentication

• Added nonce support for sign-in with OIDC ID token credentials.
• Added the OAuth sign-in support for apps served from origins with the ionic:// scheme for latest Ionic framework.

Analytics

• Fixed a bug where Analytics did not work with Google Tag Manager on the same page.

Cloud Firestore

• The in query operator now accepts nested arrays.

Version 7.3.0 - November 7, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Added in and array-contains-any query operators for use with .where(). The in operator finds documents where a specified field’s value is in a specified array. The array-contains-any operator finds documents where a specified field is an array and contains any element of a specified array.
• Added Query.limitToLast(n: number) which returns the last n documents as the result.

Version 7.2.3 - October 31, 2019

• Improved error handling in installations calls.

Cloud Firestore

• The client can now recover if certain periodic IndexedDB operations fail. Addresses #2232 (GitHub link).

Analytics

• Added missing overload signatures for logEvent when using standard event names add_payment_info and page_view.

Version 7.2.2 - October 24, 2019

• Fixed a change detection bug in rxFire.
• Switched to ref.isEqual when comparing documents to support collection groups for Cloud Firestore in rxFire.

Cloud Firestore

• Improved iOS 13 support by eliminating an additional crash in our IndexedDB persistence layer.

Version 7.2.1 - October 16, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a crash on iOS 13 that occurred when persistence was enabled in a background tab.
• Fixed an issue in the interaction with the Firestore Emulator that caused requests with timestamps to fail.

Version 7.2.0 - October 10, 2019

• The Installations.getToken() method now accept an optional forceRefresh parameter.

Remote Config

• Corrected the path of the main script in package.json file.

Version 7.1.0 - October 3, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Added a Firestore.onSnapshotsInSync() method that notifies you when all your snapshot listeners are in sync with each other.

• Fixed a regression that caused queries with nested field filters to crash the client if the field was not present in the local copy of the document.

Realtime Database

• Fixed an issue that caused large numeric values with leading zeros to not always be sorted correctly.

Analytics

• Fixed a bug where firebase.analytics() was not available when importing firebase as an all-in-one package.

• The eventParams param to logEvent() is now optional.

Version 7.0.0 - September 26, 2019

• Breaking change: For TypeScript users, the required minimal TypeScript version is 2.8.0.

FCM

• Breaking change: version 7.0.0 introduces a new service related to client app instance registration. If you are currently using FCM for web and want to upgrade to SDK 7.0.0 or later, you must enable the FCM Registration API for your project in the Google Cloud Console.

  When you enable this service, make sure you are logged in to Cloud Console with the same Google account you use for Firebase, and make sure to select the correct project.

  Please also make sure that projectId, apiKey, appId and messagingSenderId are present in your app config. See how to get your app config object.

  No other migration tasks are required; once the API is enabled, pre-7.0.0 apps will continue to function normally.

  New projects adding the FCM SDK have this service enabled by default.

• Version 7.0.0 introduces the targeting of web apps for FCM messages sent from the Notifications composer. You can now target web notification messages by browser type and version as well as operating system. See Send messages with the Firebase Console.

Analytics

• Added support for Analytics on web apps. See Get started with Google Analytics.

Remote Config

• Added support for Remote Config on web apps. See Get started with Firebase Remote Config on web.

Version 6.6.2 - September 19, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a regression introduced in 6.6.0 where Document.toString() throws an error.

Version 6.6.1 - September 12, 2019

Realtime Database

• Internal cleanup of code that supports Node.js.

Version 6.6.0 - September 5, 2019

Authentication

• Added support for multi-tenancy for Google Cloud Identity Platform developers.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a race condition between authenticating and initializing Firestore that could result in initial writes to the database being dropped.

Version 6.5.0 - August 23, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Added a Firestore.waitForPendingWrites() method that allows users to wait until all pending writes are acknowledged by the Firestore backend.
• Added a Firestore.terminate() method which terminates the instance, releasing any held resources. Once it completes, you can optionally call Firestore.clearPersistence() to wipe persisted Firestore data from disk.

Version 6.4.2 - August 23, 2019

• Changed fromRef, 'fromDocRef' and fromCollectionRef to accept an option parameter in rxFire.

Performance Monitoring

• Fixed a regression introduced in 6.4.1 where built-in metrics collections threw errors.

Version 6.4.1 - August 22, 2019

• The SDK no longer throws an error on duplicate service registration. This simplifies cases when multiple components each internally depend on another component and may each try to register it.

Cloud Firestore

• Transactions now perform exponential backoff before retrying. This means transactions on highly contended documents are more likely to succeed.

Performance Monitoring

• Performance Monitoring now validates performance metrics and attributes before storing them.

Version 6.4.0 - August 15, 2019

Realtime Database

• When parsing the Realtime Database URL, the ns URL query parameter will be treated as the default Realtime Database namespace name.
• Fixed an issue that caused .info/serverTimeOffset events not to fire.

Version 6.3.5 - August 8, 2019

Authentication

• Fixed an issue where cached redirect results were not cleared after calling signOut() or getRedirectResult().

Version 6.3.4 - August 1, 2019

Realtime Database

• Fixed an issue where multi-byte UTF-8 characters were not written correctly when using firebase.js or firebase-database.js.

Version 6.3.3 - July 26, 2019

Realtime Database

• Fixed a regression introduced in v6.3.2 causing errors when run in a browser environment.

Version 6.3.2 - July 25, 2019

Caution: SDK version 6.3.2 has a serious issue in Realtime Database API support. If your app uses Realtime Database, immediately upgrade to 6.3.3 or higher.

Realtime Database

• Added an environment variable (FIREBASE_DATABASE_EMULATOR_HOST) that allows developers to point the database emulator SDK to a local database emulator instance.

Performance Monitoring

• The SDK has been updated to better handle errors when the Performance Monitoring library is imported in an environment without a window object (such as the server side of an SSR app) or a Performance Monitoring instance is initialized in such an environment.

Version 6.3.1 - July 18, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Transactions are now more flexible. Some sequences of operations that were previously incorrectly disallowed are now allowed. For example, after reading a document that doesn't exist, you can now set it multiple times successfully in a transaction.

• Fixed an issue where query results were temporarily missing documents that previously had not matched but had been updated to now match the query.

Version 6.3.0 - July 11, 2019

Performance Monitoring

• Fixed an issue causing errors during page load in browser environments that don't support IndexedDB (such as when cookies are disabled).

Version 6.2.4 - June 27, 2019

Performance Monitoring

• Fixed an issue where Performance Monitoring throws an exception in unsupported environments. Now Performance Monitoring will not initialize in unsupported environments.

Version 6.2.3 - June 24, 2019

Authentication

• Fixed a bug causing errors in Node.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue causing some queries to return no results.

Version 6.2.2 - June 21, 2019

Caution: SDK version 6.2.2 has a serious issue in Firestore API support. If your app uses Firestore APIs, immediately upgrade to 6.2.3 or higher.

• Reverted change to the way the React Native bundle imports AsyncStorage as it was causing errors.

Cloud Firestore

• Made error messages more informative for AsyncQueue errors on iOS.

Version 6.2.1 - June 20, 2019

• Updated the React Native bundle to first try importing the AsyncStorage module from the recommended community package, if available, instead of the now-deprecated version bundled with React Native core.

• Fixed a bug in Firebase's environment check that can cause errors when Firebase is bundled into user code (using tools such as Rollup).

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue causing errors in environments that are missing window.addEventListener, such as React Native with Expo.

Cloud Storage

• Fixed an incorrect type on Reference.put() params.

Version 6.2.0 - June 13, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Added clearPersistence(), which clears the persistent storage including pending writes and cached documents. This is intended to help write reliable tests.

• Added logging and a custom error message to help users hitting https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197050 (a bug in iOS 12.2 causing the SDK to potentially crash when persistence is enabled).

Version 6.1.1 - June 6, 2019

• Did some internal refactoring to improve type safety and documentation generation.

Version 6.1.0 - May 28, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue where an environment check fails in Node.js environments.

Version 6.0.2 - May 9, 2019

• Browser environment check now works correctly without throwing an error in non-browser environments.

Cloud Firestore

• Updated gRPC to 1.20.3 to support Node.js 12 and Electron v5.0.

Version 6.0.1 - May 8, 2019

Authentication

• Fixed a regression introduced in 6.0.0 that caused code to access a removed property.

Version 6.0.0 - May 7, 2019

• Breaking change: Removed polyfills in the Firebase package. Now developers must decide which polyfills to include based on the environments they need to support. This ensures only required polyfills are included, reducing application size. See Environment Support.

Authentication

• Breaking change: Removed previously deprecated APIs.

  Removed	Replaced by
  signInAndRetrieveDataWithCustomToken	signInWithCustomToken
  signInAnonymouslyAndRetrieveData	signInAnonymously
  createUserAndRetrieveDataWithEmailAndPassword	createUserWithEmailAndPassword
  signInAndRetrieveDataWithEmailAndPassword	signInWithEmailAndPassword
  fetchProvidersForEmail	fetchSignInMethodsForEmail

• Breaking change: Updated the return type signature for signInWithCredential and linkWithCredential to a promise that resolves with a UserCredential instead of a User.

• Changed reauthenticateWithCredential to return a promise that resolves with a UserCredential.

• Deprecated the following APIs

  Deprecated	Use instead
  signInAndRetrieveDataWithCredential	signInWithCredential
  linkAndRetrieveDataWithCredential	linkWithCredential
  reauthenticateAndRetrieveDataWithCredential	reauthenticateWithCredential

Cloud Firestore

• You can now query across all collections in your database with a given collection ID using the FirebaseFirestore.collectionGroup() method.

• Deprecated the experimentalTabSynchronization setting in favor of synchronizeTabs. If you use multi-tab synchronization, it is recommended that you update your call to enablePersistence(). Firestore logs an error if you continue to use experimentalTabSynchronization.

Realtime Database

• Breaking change: Improved consistency between the type annotations for Query.on/Reference.on, Query.off/Reference.off and Query.once/Reference.once.

Performance Monitoring

• This release contains the new Performance Monitoring Client SDK. Visit the Performance Monitoring for Web Getting Started guide.

Version 5.10.1 - April 25, 2019

Authentication

• Fixed an issue where duplicate auth events could cause errors when using signInWithPopup().
• Fixed an issue where the SDK could fail to detect that it is in a service worker environment.

• Fixed an issue where transactions in a NodeJS app could be sent without auth credentials, leading to Permission Denied errors.

• Fixed an issue with IndexedDb persistence that triggered an internal assert for Queries that use nested DocumentReferences in where() clauses.

Version 5.9.0 - Mar 14, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Added FieldValue.increment(), which can be used in update() and set(..., {merge:true}) to increment or decrement numeric field values safely without transactions.
• Prepared the persistence layer to support collection group queries. While this feature is not yet available, all schema changes are included in this release. Once you upgrade, you will not be able to use an older version of the Firestore SDK with persistence enabled.

FCM

• The SDK now does not send messages to Chrome Extension background pages, which previously caused notifications not to display.

Cloud Storage

• Fixed an incorrect type definition.

Version 5.8.6 - Mar 7, 2019

Cloud Firestore

• Improved performance when querying over documents that contain subcollections.

Version 5.8.5 - Mar 1, 2019

Version 5.8.0 - Jan 17, 2019

• Added a type definition file for all firebase components, so that they work with TypeScript with dynamic import.

Cloud Firestore

• BREAKING: The timestampsInSnapshots setting is now enabled by default. Now, timestamp fields read from a DocumentSnapshot will be returned as Timestamp objects instead of Date. Any code expecting to receive a Date object must be updated.

• Fixed a crash that could happen when the app is shut down after a write has been sent to the server but before it has been received on a listener.

Version 5.7.2 - Jan 10, 2019

• Fixed a packaging issue where some external dependencies were included in the Firebase package.

• Added syntax highlights to the README file.

Cloud Firestore

• Changed the email validation logic to allow international email addresses.

Cloud Firestore

• Added a custom error for schema downgrades.

Version 5.7.0 - Dec 6, 2018

Cloud Firestore

• Added a garbage collection process to on-disk persistence that removes older documents. This is enabled automatically if persistence is enabled, and the SDK will attempt to periodically clean up older, unused documents once the on-disk cache passes a threshold size (default: 40 MB). This threshold can be configured by changing the setting cacheSizeBytes in the settings passed to Firestore.settings(). It must be set to a minimum of 1 MB. The garbage collection process can be disabled entirely by setting cacheSizeBytes to CACHE_SIZE_UNLIMITED.

• Updated gRPC version to support Node 11.

Version 5.6.0 - Nov 29, 2018

Version 5.5.0 - Sep 12, 2018

• Fixed an issue where typings for the firebase package were referenced incorrectly.

Cloud Firestore

• Access to offline persistence is no longer limited to a single tab. You can opt into this new experimental mode by invoking enablePersistence() with {experimentalTabSynchronization: true}. All tabs accessing persistence must use the same setting for this flag.
• Fixed an issue where the first get() call made after being offline could incorrectly return cached data without attempting to reach the backend.
• Changed get() to only make 1 attempt to reach the backend before returning cached data, potentially reducing delays while offline. Previously it would make 2 attempts, to work around a backend bug.
• Fixed an issue that caused us to drop empty objects from calls to set(..., { merge: true }).
• Improved argument validation for several API methods.
• Changed the internal handling for locally updated documents that haven't yet been read back from Cloud Firestore. This can lead to slight behavior changes and may affect the SnapshotMetadata.hasPendingWrites metadata flag.
• Eliminated superfluous update events for locally cached documents that are known to lag behind the server version. Instead, we buffer these events until the client has caught up with the server.

Version 5.4.2 - August 30, 2018

Authentication

• Fixed a memory leak in the IndexedDB implementation.

Version 5.4.0 - August 16, 2018

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed get({source: 'cache'}) to be able to return nonexistent documents from cache.
• Prepared the persistence layer to allow shared access from multiple tabs. While this feature is not yet available, all schema changes are included in this release. Once you upgrade, you will not be able to use an older version of the Firestore SDK with persistence enabled.
• Fixed an issue where changes to custom authentication claims did not take effect until you did a full sign-out and sign-in. (firebase/firebase-ios-sdk#1499)

Version 5.3.1 - August 3, 2018

Cloud Firestore

• Improved how Firestore handles idle queries to reduce the cost of re-listening within 30 minutes.
• Improved offline performance with many outstanding writes.

Version 5.3.0 - July 19, 2018

Authentication

• Fixed an issue where redirect results were being handled incorrectly for deleted Auth instances.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed an issue where queries returned fewer results than they should, caused by documents that were cached as deleted when they should not have been (firebase/firebase-ios-sdk#1548). Because some cache data is cleared, clients might use extra bandwidth the first time they launch with this version of the SDK.
• Added firebase.firestore.FieldValue.arrayUnion() and firebase.firestore.FieldValue.arrayRemove() to atomically add and remove elements from an array field in a document.
• Added 'array-contains' query operator for use with .where() to find documents where an array field contains a specific element.

FCM

• Changed a behavior where, if a VAPID key did not exist, an error was thrown.

Version 5.0.1 - May 8, 2018

• Fixed an issue with our typings that was preventing TypeScript apps from compiling.

Version 5.0.0 - May 8, 2018

• Refactored the top-level Firebase entrypoints (e.g. import firebase from 'firebase';) to additionally include the Firestore and Functions components which were previously excluded by default. Developers using these bundles will find a warning in the browser console instructing them how to include only the components they are using, which will improve the performance of their applications.

Authentication

• Exposes the new Auth.updateCurrentUser API for copying firebase.User objects between Firebase apps.
• Updated the return type signature for signInWithEmailAndPassword, signInWithCustomToken, signInAnonymously and createUserWithEmailAndPassword to return a promise that resolves with a UserCredential instead of a user.
• Removed getToken API in favor of getIdToken and getIdTokenResult.
• Deprecated signInWithCredential, linkWithCredential, reauthenticateWithCredential and fetchProvidersForEmail in favor of signInAndRetrieveDataWithCredential, linkAndRetrieveDataWithCredential, reauthenticateAndRetrieveDataWithCredential and fetchSignInMethodsForEmail.
• Improved detection of external auth state changes for synchronizing Auth state between different windows.

Realtime Database

• Removed the private path property from firebase.database.Reference.

Cloud Firestore

• Merged the includeQueryMetadataChanges and includeDocumentMetadataChanges options passed to Query.onSnapshot() into a single includeMetadataChanges option.
• QuerySnapshot.docChanges() is now a method that optionally takes an includeMetadataChanges option. By default, even when listening to a query with { includeMetadataChanges:true }, metadata-only document changes are suppressed in docChanges().
• Added new { mergeFields: (string|FieldPath)[] } option to set() which allows merging of a reduced subset of fields.

Cloud Storage

• Removed the previously deprecated FullMetadata.downloadURLs and UploadTaskSnapshot.downloadURL properties.

Version 4.13.0 - April 19, 2018

• Fixed an issue where Firefox multi-tab/private mode browsing threw errors with our IndexedDB implementation.
• Exposes the new getIdTokenResult API for firebase.User objects.

Cloud Firestore

• Added a new Timestamp class to represent timestamp fields, currently supporting up to microsecond precision. It can be passed to API methods anywhere a JS Date object is currently accepted. To make DocumentSnapshots read timestamp fields back as Timestamps instead of Dates, you can set the newly added flag timestampsInSnapshots in FirestoreSettings to true. Note that the current behavior (DocumentSnapshots returning JS Date objects) will be removed in a future release. Timestamp supports higher precision than JS Date.
• Added ability to control whether DocumentReference.get() and Query.get() should fetch from server only, (by passing { source: 'server' }), cache only (by passing { source: 'cache' }), or attempt server and fall back to the cache (which was the only option previously, and is now the default).

FCM

• Fixed an issue where getToken was throwing errors in Worker environments.
• General cleanup and hardening of the entire messaging codebase. added TypeScript types, additional tests, etc.

Cloud Storage

• Deprecated the FullMetadata.downloadURLs and UploadTaskSnapshot.downloadURL properties in favor of Reference.getDownloadURL()

• Fixed an issue where TypeScript would throw errors due to duplicate symbols.

Authentication

• Fixed an issue where several of the new APIs were missing from the firebase package typings.

Cloud Firestore

• Fixed a regression in the Firebase JS release 4.11.0 that could cause get() requests made while offline to be delayed by up to 10 seconds (rather than returning from cache immediately).
• Fixed an issue where some NPM users were seeing large performance degradations on Edge.
• Fixed an issue where several APIs were missing from the firebase package typings.

FCM

Realtime Database

• Fixed an issue where certain browser APIs weren't available in IE 11.
• Added the ability to create a new reference from an existing database reference.

Cloud Firestore

• If the SDK's attempt to connect to the Cloud Firestore backend doesn't succeed or fails within 10 seconds, the SDK will consider itself "offline", causing get() calls to resolve with cached results, rather than continuing to wait.

Version 4.10.1 - February 22, 2018

• Did some internal refactoring to support the use of modern typescript APIs across the codebase (thanks merlinnot for the PR!)

Version 4.9.0 - January 18, 2018

• Snapshot listeners (with the includeMetadataChanges option enabled) now receive an event with snapshot.metadata.fromCache set to true if the SDK loses its connection to the backend. A new event with snapshot.metadata.fromCache set to false will be raised once the connection is restored and the query is in sync with the backend again.
• Added SnapshotOptions API to control how DocumentSnapshots return unresolved server timestamps.
• Added disableNetwork() and enableNetwork() methods to Firestore class, allowing for explicit network management.
• For non-existing documents, DocumentSnapshot.data() now returns undefined instead of throwing an exception. A new QueryDocumentSnapshot class is introduced for Queries to reduce the number of undefined-checks in your code.
• Added isEqual API to GeoPoint, Blob, SnapshotMetadata, DocumentSnapshot, QuerySnapshot, CollectionReference, FieldValue and FieldPath.
• A "Could not reach Firestore backend." message will be logged when the initial connection to the Firestore backend fails.

• Fixed a bug where the database inadvertently created a global variable on the window object.
• Use of the update() method now only cancels transactions that are directly included in the updated paths (not transactions in adjacent paths). For example, an update at /move for a child node walk will cancel transactions at /, /move, and /move/walk and in any child nodes under /move/walk. But, it will no longer cancel transactions at sibling nodes, such as /move/run.

Cloud Storage

• Improved network utilization for file uploads.

Version 3.4.0 - September 14, 2016

Realtime Database

• Modified the Facebook login and OAuth grant permissions screen to work better in popup-sized windows.
• This release has an issue with signInWithPopup() not working with Internet Explorer. You can continue to use version 3.3.0 or earlier until this is fixed in a future release.

Cloud Storage

• Fixed an issue where contentType in custom metadata was being ignored for string-format uploads.

Version 3.3.0 - August 16, 2016

Authentication

• Network error handling for sign in and link with popup operations.
• Long popup cancellation timeouts.
• When you use signInWithRedirect, the onAuthStateChanged observer now waits until getRedirectResult resolves before triggering. (In older versions, the observer would trigger twice: once when the page loaded, and a second time when getRedirectResult resolved.)

Realtime Database

• A warning is no longer logged if you don't provide an apiKey when initializing the SDK and just want to have unauthenticated access to your Realtime Database. Security Rules are still in effect even if you do not provide an apiKey.

Authentication

• Replace use of browser-specific APIs that were blocking use of React Native from the JavaScript SDK.
• The Node.js SDK now supports unauthenticated access. If no service account is provided, Realtime Database access will be restricted just as any unauthenticated client would be. In this case, certain methods (like creating and verifying tokens) will throw an error.

Version 3.0.5 - June 14, 2016

Authentication

• Fixed JSON parsing error when used in Chrome extensions.
• Corrected server URLs used by library when using localhost for debugging.

Cloud Storage

• Allows use of "gs://bucket" instead of "bucket" in storageBucket config.

Version 3.0.4 - June 7, 2016

Realtime Database

• Updated the reference documentation to include more extensive API descriptions and examples.
• Improved Realtime Database authentication-expiration retry logic.

Authentication

• When using Firebase Web SDK in a non http or https environment (Cordova or Electron apps for instance), instead of raising a confusing error on initialization, it will silently ignore it. It will only throw an auth/operation-not-supported-in-this-environment error when trying to use unsupported operations (signInWithPopup, signInWithRedirect, linkWithPopup, linkWithRedirect and getRedirectResult).

Cloud Storage

• Generate more specific error message when quota is exceeded.

• The way you install and initialize the Node.js has also changed. APIs have been renamed and you now authenticate using a service account instead of a secret or custom token. When you choose to upgrade, please see the Database Server SDK Setup Guide and use the Web Migration Guide to help you update your Node.js code to the latest APIs.

Authentication

• The way you install and initialize the SDK has changed and most APIs have been renamed. When you decide to upgrade, please see the Web Migration Guide for details.
• Node.js server SDK:
  • Token minting and verification for Firebase Authentication is now built into the server SDKs themselves instead of in separate token minting libraries.
  • All of the existing authentication methods have been removed. Instead, use the databaseAuthVariableOverride option (Node.js) or when initializing the SDK. See Installation & Setup for Servers for more details.
  • Use the Web Migration Guide or to help you update your Node.js or Java code to the latest APIs.

Cloud Storage

• Initial release of Cloud Storage. Cloud Storage provides secure file uploads and downloads for your Firebase apps, regardless of network quality.
