Problem deploying my functions to Google Cloud

Question

I'm having a problem deploying my functions to Google Cloud:

How and message appears in Firebase CLI:

    + functions: Finished running predeploy script.
    i functions: ensuring necessary APIs are enabled ...
    + functions: all necessary APIs are enabled
    i functions: preparing functions directory for uploading ...
    i functions: packaged functions (85.85 KB) for uploading

I am new to Stack Overflow, so I am unable to mark a question as a duplicate or comment, so I am answering again here:

Node.js 8 Firebase cloud functions are currently being phased out, as Node.js 8 was recently marked end as "end-of-life" by the Node.js foundation.

Deployment of Node.js 8 functions will stop after February 15, 2021, and executions of deployed Node.js functions will stop after March 15, 2021.

If you've recently switched to Node.js 10 Firebase cloud functions, these require the Blaze pay-as-you-go billing plan and the Firebase CLI version ≥ 8.1.0. Using the Spark free tier, you cannot deploy Node.js 10 Firebase cloud functions.

The error message "Cause: The billing account for the owning project is disabled in state absent" provides some information the cause of this issue.

Answer 2

From the message you see "Cause: The billing account for the owning project is disabled in state absent."

The correct next step was already given by @Doug to contact Firebase support as this forum cannot dig deeper into it.
