google-services.json - changed package_name - do i need to create a new configuration file

问题

My current environemnt already has a google-services.json file and everything works. But now due to unforeseen circumstance i must rename the package of my project. I have successfully renamed the package now. I also went into the google-services.json file and renamed the package name there as well. So now i am wondering do i need to go back onto the google developer site and create a new configuration file ?

Basically i am concerned that renaming the package namein google-services.json is not sufficient. i think that configuration is tied to the original package name. I am wondering when a developer renames the package name of a project is it necesaary to generate a new configuration file from google developer site ?

Here is the google-services.json file i originally generated and i'll show you how i changed the package name :

 {
  "project_info": {
    "project_number": "987654321",
    "project_id": "firebase-project_myapp"
  },
  "client": [
    {
      "client_info": {
        "mobilesdk_app_id": "1:234567:android:1011212314151617",
        "android_client_info": {
          "package_name": "com.NewPackageName" //i updated package name
        }
      },
      "oauth_client": [],
      "api_key": [
        {
          "current_key": "adlskfjsd;fjkalskdjfalk;sdfj"
        }
      ],
      "services": {
        "analytics_service": {
          "status": 1
        },
        "appinvite_service": {
          "status": 1,
          "other_platform_oauth_client": []
        },
        "ads_service": {
          "status": 1
        }
      }
    }
  ],
  "configuration_version": "1"
}

Again is it sufficientn to to only update package_name in the json file or do i need to create all new projects for my app ?

回答1:

Changing the package name in the google-services.json file will not work as it does not act as an update mechanism of any sort but merely a repository of data to be used during services instance establishment.

Yes, it is necessary to create a new configuration file by creating a new application or by deleting the current application in the console you can re-use the application name originally used. This is because each google services instance are generated specifically for a particular application tied to the package name with specific identifiers. So it is an absolute necessity to create a new application and use the google-services.json file from that application settings.

We need add an app in firebase-console inside the project with new package name and then download and replace that json in the project directory.

Worked for me!
