Hi all

Did anyone used the firebase storage node before and how did you configure it. Mine does not want to connect.

Which firebase storage node? The full name of the node you have installed please (possibly node-red-contrib-something). Also have you checked the node's github page (which is usually linked from its page on npmjs) for any outstanding issues?

I haven't used that but, in case no-one else responds, how have you configured it and what _exactly_ is the symptom you are seeing?

Please start node red in a terminal and post the full log here. Depending on how you installed it then running

```auto
node-red-stop
node-red-start

```

May do it.

Do you need help on this?

If so, you're gonna have to pay screenshots of the flow, describe what you're doing and show the errors.
