Answer 1

For those who are using Firebase SDK andadmin.initializeApp:

1 - Generate a Private Key and place in /functions folder.

2 - Configure your code as follows:

const serviceAccount = require('../../serviceAccountKey.json');
try { admin.initializeApp(Object.assign(functions.config().firebase, { credential: admin.credential.cert(serviceAccount) })); } catch (e) {}

Documentation

The try/catch is because I'm using a index.js that imports other files and creates one function to each file. If you're using a single index.js file with all functions, you should be ok with admin.initializeApp(Object.assign(functions.config().firebase, { credential: admin.credential.cert(serviceAccount) }));.
