HTTP Error: 401, Request had invalid authentication credentials. Expected OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential

Question

First of all i am trying to learn using Firebase functions. So i had installed node.js a long time ago and today i tried to use a notification function on firebase.So when i used firebase init in command prompt it asked me to proceed and then asked me what do i want to do so i chose functions there. So far everything was fine but then it stopped suddenly and showed me

Error: HTTP Error: 401, Request had invalid authentication credentials. Expected 
OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential. See 
https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/devconsole-project.
