ID tokens are what the modern client SDKs actually use to authenticate end users to Firebase services such as the Firebase Realtime Database, Firestore, and Cloud Storage for Firebase. If your app includes a custom backend server, ID tokens can and should be used to communicate securely with it.
Just so, how do I get my firebase access token?
The access tokens can be generated using a service account with proper permissions to your Realtime Database. Clicking the Generate New Private Key button at the bottom of the Service Accounts section of the Firebase console allows you to easily generate a new service account key file if you do not have one already.
- Click the Admin icon ( ) in the sidebar, then select Channels > API.
- Click the Settings tab, and make sure Token Access is enabled.
- Click the + button to the right of Active API Tokens.
- Optionally, enter a description under API Token Description.
- Copy the token, and paste it somewhere secure.
Subsequently, one may also ask, how long does a firebase token last?
Our custom Firebase token will expire in 3600 seconds (1 hour). This is only half as long as our default Auth0 access token lifetime (which is 7200 seconds, or 2 hours).
