Firebase Remote Config getInt() missing

Question

Firebase provides the following methods:

• getBoolean()
• getByteArray()
• getDouble()
• getLong()
• getString()

https://firebase.google.com/docs/remote-config/use-config-android#get-parametervalues-to-use-in-your-app

But getInt() is missing from this list, I'm curious if there's a reason for this? Is the preferred approach to use Long or String and cast/convert to an int?

Answer 1

Looks like iOS has it, oddly enough.

Since int is a subset of long, you should use this to store your integer.
