Firebase: There was an unknown error while process

Question

I'm just trying to creating new project in Firebase but getting this error every time.

Answer 1

I have this issue as well however, it was because of an outage in the Firebase service. To check for outages, go to: https://status.firebase.google.com

You can see there are red dots which shows the outage in the Firebase console.

Clicking on the red dot will provide you with a status on what's going on.

Answer 2

I was using Google Cloud Platform where I had exceeded my limits. Hence when I tried with other email ID. It worked Fine!!!!

I would suggest you to check the resources you have been utilizing by Google such as Firebase, G-Drive paid version, Google Cloud Platform etc.

Always, a new email ID is the best solution for practices purpose. No offense!

Answer 3

The same issue happened to me today, but none of the answers was helpful. the problem is currently only project owner can create it.

I am the editor, that is why I am unable to create it.

Check your role in Project overview -> Users and permissions. if you are an editor ask the owner to create it.

Note: This error did not happen to me when I create a new project. It happened to me when I create Firebase Storage in my firebase project. but I got the same error message(There was an unknown error while processing the request try again).

If someone searches help by error message this answer may help to them. (I also got this question by searching the error message)

hope, it is helpful to someone!

Answer 4

I've been using Firefox along with the Disconnect add-on. In my case, adding Firebase webpage to the whitelist helped resolving the problem.

Answer 5

Signing out and then back in didn't work for me. Even worse, my projects were created somehow in the background and then I finally got an error message that told me I reached a limit and wouldn't be able to create any new projects any more.

I got emails though informing me about a "Project Shutdown Announcement". I clicked the link there and landed on a site that listed all these projects that had been created in the background although the error message "There was an unknown error while processing the request" would indicate otherwise.

I restored one of the projects there and used that. Hope that helps.

Answer 6

I had same issue. I clicked "Cancel", then refreshed the page. Project appeared under "Recent projects".
