Hi   Rubem Andrade,

Got it — thanks for the heads-up. This sounds like a recent issue with SAP Build Apps (web version) where it's no longer connecting to Firebase, and all users are seeing a "login/password is incorrect" error.

A few things to check and try first:

1. Firebase Authentication Method:

   • Double-check if you're using Email/Password authentication in Firebase.

   • Sometimes Firebase projects have disabled certain auth methods by accident or due to policy updates.

   • Go to: Firebase Console > Authentication > Sign-in Method and ensure Email/Password is enabled.

2. Quota or Billing Issues:

   • Check Firebase usage/billing. If your Firebase project hit its quota or if billing was paused, auth requests may fail.

   • Check: Firebase Console > Usage & billing.

3. Check the Firebase Config in SAP Build:

   • Make sure the Firebase project config (API key, authDomain, etc.) hasn’t changed or been reset.

   • Compare the config in SAP Build Apps under App Settings > Data > Firebase to the one in Firebase Console > Project Settings > General.

4. Recent Changes in Firebase API Rules or SAP Build?

   • Firebase occasionally deprecates APIs, and SAP Build might need an update to support the new rules.

   • If the problem started exactly two days ago, it could be due to a Firebase update or a backend change in SAP Build.

5. Try Logging In Directly to Firebase App:

   • Use the same credentials on a simple test page that uses Firebase Auth directly (or use Postman).

   • This helps rule out whether the issue is with Firebase or SAP Build’s connection to it.

Workaround Suggestions

• Try creating a new Firebase user manually from the Firebase console and logging in with that one.

• Create a new Firebase project and connect SAP Build to it temporarily for testing.

Thanks & Regards

Hello, I had already reviewed the options described above. I even created a new project with just the login screen. the behavior was the same. I believe we have a bug.

Hi

The launch of Firebase Studio (and merging the IDX with it) may have changed things at their end, may be.
