Hi @abMarlim sorry that you've run into this. In order for us to debug what is going on, can you create a minimal reproducible sample of the function(s) that you're trying to deploy. Thanks

Hi @colerogers of course, I'll try to create an example and get back here as soon as possible ;)

Have this issue as well:

CLI Version:   11.3.0
Platform:      win32
Node Version:  v16.13.1

[abMarlim]

The problem was in using Firebase Cloud Functions v1 and v2 in the same project.

As I needed to use environment variables from v1 functions.config(), I was having a conflict and received this error:

Detailed stack trace: Error: functions.config() is no longer available in Cloud Functions for Firebase v2. Please see the latest documentation for information on how to transition to using environment variables

The way to solve it was to use the codebase practice of firebase, with different versions of codes/functions in repositories and thus eliminating the problem.

Hi @abMarlim I have read the documentation but I don´t find the solve at this problem. I made a new project with firebase init but i have the same problem.

Hi @MrCalamitus,

In my case after implementing the logic with codebase I needed to delete all Cloud Functions (v1 and v2) that were in Firebase, and only then deploy all the functions again using the new codebase practice.

As the project was still in the test phase (not production), it was not a problem for me to delete all the functions, I don't know if it is possible in your case.

I hope it helps ;)

I'm having the same issue. I found a solution here. It's temporary tho...
