Hello,  
I want to integrate Node Red with Firebase realtime database.  
When I define a realtime database in Firebase it creates it of this type:  
databaseURL: "[https://xxxx-yyyy-default-rtdb.europe-west1.firebasedatabase.app](https://xxxx-yyyy-default-rtdb.europe-west1.firebasedatabase.app)".  
When in Node Red I load node-red-contrib-firebase it compulsorily pretends that the database is \*.firebaseio.com.  
The two database formats are incompatible.  
Am I doing something wrong?  
Thanks and regards.  
Lorenzo

You probably shouldn't use that node. In one of the issues in the github page, the author states (on February 12, 2019):

> Unfortunately, the version of the Firebase SDK used in this project is deprecated and no longer supported by Google (specifically the Auth restful endpoints I believe).
> 
> See the other issues - I don’t have the bandwidth or motivation at this time to do the necessary updates (I haven’t touched Node-Red or Firebase in a couple of years at this point).
> 
> Happy to review pull requests but otherwise I’m afraid you’re on your own for this one
