I am following the basic tutorial in order to create an e-mail / password authentication using Firebase.
mAuth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)
.addOnCompleteListener(this, new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
Log.d(TAG, "createUserWithEmail:onComplete:" + task.isSuccessful());
if (!task.isSuccessful()) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, R.string.auth_failed,
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
hideProgressDialog();
}
});
But whenever I try to create an account (with a valid e-mail address and a diversity of passwords, with caps, numbers, high length) it displays my failure Toast.
What could I be doing wrong?
As this answer says: Firebase Android: An internal error has occurred. [ OPERATION_NOT_ALLOWED ]
You need to have the authentication method enabled in the Firebase console, so go to the authentication option on Firebase and then, to the sign in method to activate the email provider.
I Hope it helps!
Go to Firebase console -> Authentication -> SIGN-IN METHOD -> enable Email/Password

So what I have done so far is:
I have enabled Email/Password in sign-in methods in authentication in Firebase panel.
I have added the library and included the google-services.json file in my project.
I have used the code below to create a new account:
mAuth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)
.addOnCompleteListener(this, new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
// Sign in success, update UI with the signed-in user's information
Log.d(TAG, "createUserWithEmail:success");
FirebaseUser user = mAuth.getCurrentUser();
} else {
// If sign in fails, display a message to the user.
Log.w(TAG, "createUserWithEmail:failure", task.getException());
}
}
});
And this is the error I receive:
com.google.firebase.FirebaseException: An internal error has occurred. [ 403. That’s an error.Your client does not have permission to get URL /identitytoolkit/v3/relyingparty/signupNewUser from this server. That’s all we know. ]
So I got no clue how to solve the problem. Any further steps to take?
I was doing Firebase Authentication with email & password in Android Studio, so I followed all setup steps in official documentation (added Firebase my project, add the dependencies, enable Email/Password sign-in). Also, I just copied the sample project from their documentation because I just wanted to see if it works. But, when I click the Register button I get the "Authentication failed." toast. That means the task.isSuccessful() returned false..does someone know why this keeps happening? I'm pretty sure problem lies somewhere in Firebase/Android Studio since I copied 99% of their code.
mAuth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)
.addOnCompleteListener(this, new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
// Sign in success, update UI with the signed-in user's information
FirebaseUser user = mAuth.getCurrentUser();
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Authentication success.",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Authentication failed.",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
I'm creating an Android application that will deliver notifications.
Users can opt-in with a phone number or an email account.
I just need to verify the email the user entered, I don't want to create a Firebase account
Firebase has a FirebaseUser#sendEmailVerification() but that will require to create an account.
In other words, I just want the email verification to be the same as the Phone verification, where Firebase will just send you a code or verification link.
Is there a way to leverage Firebase email verification without creating an account?
For anyone trying to accomplish the same, here's how I was able to do it.
Go to Fibrebase console and enable Email/Password and Anonymous sign-in methods on the Authentication screen
Firebase Authentication screen
Then in you code, create an Anonymous user (this is what does the trick, because now you have a valid user to verify against), change the email, and then send a verification. After that, reload the Firebase user and check isEmailVerified()
mAuth = FirebaseAuth.getInstance();
mAuth.signInAnonymously()
.addOnCompleteListener(this, new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
Log.d(TAG, "signInAnonymously:success");
if (mAuth.getCurrentUser().isEmailVerified() == false) {
mAuth.getCurrentUser().updateEmail("<MAIL YOU WANTO TO VERIFY HERE>");
mAuth.getCurrentUser().sendEmailVerification();
Log.e(TAG, "mail sent.....................................");
}
//updateUI(user);
} else {
// If sign in fails, display a message to the user.
Log.w(TAG, "signInAnonymously:failure", task.getException());
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Authentication failed.",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
Here's the reloading part:
mAuth.getCurrentUser().reload()
.addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Void>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(Void aVoid) {
Log.e(TAG,( mAuth.getCurrentUser().isEmailVerified() ? "VERIFIED" : "Not verified"));
}
});
Both phone number verification and email verification are tied to a Firebase Authentication account. There is no way to use them with such an account, since the result of a verification is that a the relevant property (email_verified or phone_number) in the user account gets updated.
I started getting a FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException exception when I try to sign in with Facebook in my Android application.
com.google.firebase.auth.FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException: An
account already exists with the same email address but different
sign-in credentials. Sign in using a provider associated with this
email address.
I am using Firebase to handle the registration and Facebook to deliver a "one-click" login method, using a com.facebook.login.widget.LoginButton view as a trigger.
These sign-in method was already working. I was able to register a account with Facebook, and use the same method to log-in this account. But now have start to throwing this exception.
Here is the code where I register a account from Facebook and proceed with login:
private void handleFacebookAccessToken(AccessToken token) {
final ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
dialog.show(getString(R.string.dialog_wait));
firebaseAuth.signInWithCredential(FacebookAuthProvider.getCredential(token.getToken()))
.addOnCompleteListener(this, new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
#SuppressWarnings("ThrowableResultOfMethodCallIgnored")
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
dialog.close();
registerNewUserFromSocialLogin(firebaseAuth.getCurrentUser());
} else {
if(task.getException() instanceof FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException) {
//TODO: handle sign-in with different credentials
} else {
dialog.close();
LoginManager.getInstance().logOut();
Toast.makeText(LoginActivity.this,
R.string.error_login,
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
});
}
And my Gradle file with current use library:
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:10.2.1'
compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:[4,5)'
So my problem is: I don't know how to handle FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException exception.
None of the solutions in StackOverflow or Firebase Documentation help me. I am looking for a solution that is able to login the user although the duplicated credential, to stil deliver the "one-click" login method.
You will get that error when the user had previously signed in with the same email using a different provider. For example, the user signs in with email user#gmail.com using Google. The user then tries to sign in with the same email but using Facebook. The Firebase Auth backend will return that error (account exists with different credential). In that case, you should use the fetchProvidersForEmail to look up the existing providers associated with email user#gmail.com, in this case google.com. You signInWithCredential to the existing google account to prove ownership of that account, and then linkWithCredential the Facebook credential the user originally was trying to sign in with. This merges both accounts so in the future the user can sign in with either.
This happens when you use the single accounts per email. If you want to allow different accounts per email, you can switch to multiple accounts per email in the Firebase console.
Here is an example:
mAuth.signInWithCredential(authCredential)
.addOnCompleteListener(this, new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
// Account exists with different credential. Assume the developer wants to
// continue and link new credential to existing account.
if (!task.isSuccessful() &&
task.getException() instanceof FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException) {
FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException exception =
(FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException)task.getException();
if (exception.getErrorCode() ==
ERROR_ACCOUNT_EXISTS_WITH_DIFFERENT_CREDENTIAL) {
// Lookup existing account’s provider ID.
mAuth.fetchProvidersForEmail(existingAcctEmail)
.addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<ProviderQueryResult> {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<ProviderQueryResult> task) {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
if (task.getResult().getProviders().contains(
EmailAuthProvider.PROVIDER_ID)) {
// Password account already exists with the same email.
// Ask user to provide password associated with that account.
...
// Sign in with email and the provided password.
// If this was a Google account, call signInWithCredential instead.
mAuth.signInWithEmailAndPassword(existingAcctEmail, password)
addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult> {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
// Link initial credential to existing account.
mAuth.getCurrentUser().linkWithCredential(authCredential);
}
}
});
}
}
}
});
}
}
});
There is no need for this, you can just allow multiple accounts merge under firebaase->authentication-> sign in method -> Advanced - > change (multiple accounts per email address.
Firebase will merge the same email address but will give you different user UID.
See sample below.
AuthCredential authCredential = FacebookAuthProvider.getCredential(token.getToken());
mAuth.signInWithCredential(authCredential)
.addOnCompleteListener(this, task -> {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
// Sign in success, update UI with the signed-in user's information
Log.d(TAG, "signInWithCredential:success");
FirebaseUser user = mAuth.getCurrentUser();
LoginFacebookGoogleActivity.this.updateUI(user);
} else {
// If sign in fails, display a message to the user.
Log.w(TAG, "signInWithCredential:failure", task.getException());
if(task.getException() instanceof FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException){
FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException exception = (FirebaseAuthUserCollisionException) task.getException();
//log this bundle into the analytics to analyze which details you want to collect
}
Toast.makeText(LoginFacebookGoogleActivity.this, "Authentication failed " + task.getException(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
LoginFacebookGoogleActivity.this.updateUI(null);
}
});
So, I have enabled email/password in the dev console and everything is working fine. Except that I should be getting a confirmation email to the email I inputted, but I'm not getting it. I thought it does it automatically, but apparently it doesn't.
Method for signup:
public void signUp(View v) {
String email = emailET.getText().toString();
String password = passwordET.getText().toString();
mAuth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)
.addOnCompleteListener(this, new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
Log.d("AD", "createUserWithEmail: " + task.isSuccessful() + task.getException());
if (!task.isSuccessful()) {
createDialogSignUpError(
getApplicationContext().getResources().getString(R.string.signUpFailedET),
getApplicationContext().getResources().getString(R.string.signUpFailedEM),
getApplicationContext().getResources().getString(android.R.string.ok));
Toast.makeText(SignUp.this, task.getException().toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else if (task.isSuccessful()) {
Toast.makeText(SignUp.this, "Registration Successful.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
}
It should be sending, but sadly it's not. I've read somewhere on SO that you need to add a method or something to send the email, and it's missing in the docs, but that wasn't Java.
Edit
According to here, it is only supported in iOS and web. Which is pretty surprising, since after all, android IS Google, and Google is Firebase. So is it possible even with creating a custom sent email?
Edit 2: To be more clear, does Android have an Email sender like C#. That would be the best solution if there isn't an API for this.
Now according to the updated firebase documentation
Here is how to send a verification mail to the user that in your case is after creating the account and letting the user to log-in then send him/her a notification that he have to verify the account and then the next login is blocked until he/she didn't verify (I think this is better than making the user is forced to open his email first)
Send a user a verification email
You can send an address verification email to a user with the
sendEmailVerification method. For example:
FirebaseUser user = FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser();
user.sendEmailVerification()
.addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<Void>() {
#Override
public void onComplete(#NonNull Task<Void> task) {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
Log.d(TAG, "Email sent.");
}
}
});
You can now plug any Firebase gaps in email coverage by rolling your own email sender using Firebase Cloud Functions. There's an example here. Of course this means more work than just configuring like the built-in options but at least means we can do whatever we need to do. :)
