Question

Firebase

No clients w

Answer 1

This happen to me, when I changed into prod Firebase (Google) account.

What happen is, I changed the package name and forgot to update the gradle file.

Under defaultConfig update the applicationId into your new package name.

Delete your current google-services.json and reconnect to your firebase (using Android Studio Firebase console)

If in any case you cannot delete your google-services.json, comment your Firebases dependencies on your gradle file then sync. Then delete it.

Take note, No clients were able to be added to your Firebase project for the following reasons: An app with this package name and SHA1 is already connected to a Google project. If you have used a Google API previously, please select that project in the Connect to an existing Project list. error happen when your applicationId is already connected to existing Firebase account. You do not necessary need to delete to previous Firebase account, just update your applicationID. This error almost made me jump into 50th floor. So save your self, if you run into this error ask here. Cheers mate.
