Custom config provided in code isn't recognized

[cado1982]

I'm attempting to provide Firebase config using FirebaseApp.Create but Analytics is logging errors that it can't find the google_app_id.

public class FirebaseAnalyticsManager : MonoBehaviour
{
    private void Awake()
    {
        InitializeFirebase();
    }

    private void InitializeFirebase()
    {
        Debug.Log("Initializing Firebase");

#if PRODUCTION
        SetProductionEnvironment();
#else
        SetDevelopmentEnvironment();
#endif

#if UNITY_IOS || UNITY_ANDROID
        FirebaseApp.CheckAndFixDependenciesAsync().ContinueWith(task =>
        {
            var dependencyStatus = task.Result;

            if (dependencyStatus == Firebase.DependencyStatus.Available)
            {
                Debug.Log("Firebase available");
                OnFirebaseAvailable();
            }
            else
            {
                Application.Quit();      
            }
        }); 
#endif
    }

    private void OnFirebaseAvailable()
    {
#if UNITY_IOS || UNITY_ANDROID
        FirebaseAnalytics.SetAnalyticsCollectionEnabled(true);
        SetupMessaging();
#endif
    }

    private static FirebaseApp SetDevelopmentEnvironment()
    {
        Debug.Log("Setting Development environment");
        AppOptions options = new AppOptions();
        options.ProjectId = "######";
        options.StorageBucket = "######.appspot.com";
        options.AppId = "######";
        options.ApiKey = "######";
        options.MessageSenderId = "######";
        options.DatabaseUrl = null;
        return FirebaseApp.Create(options);
    }

    private static FirebaseApp SetProductionEnvironment()
    {
        Debug.Log("Setting Production environment");
        AppOptions options = new AppOptions();
        options.ProjectId = "######";
        options.StorageBucket = "######.appspot.com";
        options.AppId = "######";
        options.ApiKey = "######";
        options.MessageSenderId = "######";
        options.DatabaseUrl = null;
        return FirebaseApp.Create(options);
    }
}

Running on an Android device provides the following logs from logcat

As you can see my Initializing Firebase log message happens first. Then the SetProductionEnvironment method is called which from the docs should set the default instance. However all calls to Analytics are generating the Missing google_app_id. Firebase Analytics disabled log.

I don't have any google-services.json file, because I want to do the configuration in code. I'd expect FirebaseApp.Create to set the default instance but that doesn't seem to be the case. What am I missing?

Hi @cado1982

FirebaseApp.Create() need to be called AFTER FirebaseApp.CheckAndFixDependenciesAsync() is complete.

Could you move SetProductionEnvironment to OnFirebaseAvailable()? For instance

    private void OnFirebaseAvailable()
    {
#if PRODUCTION
        SetProductionEnvironment();
#else
        SetDevelopmentEnvironment();
#endif
#if UNITY_IOS || UNITY_ANDROID
        FirebaseAnalytics.SetAnalyticsCollectionEnabled(true);
        SetupMessaging();
#endif
    }
