How do I clone a Firebase project?

There is currently no way (neither through the Console or through an API) to create a project that is a clone of another project. At the moment you will have to re-create the config data in the new project manually. This user is first on the weekly Google Cloud leaderboard.

Can I use two Firebase for my website?

However, when you want to access multiple projects from a single application, you'll need a distinct Firebase application object to reference each one individually. It's up to you to initialize these other instances.


I recently shifted ownership of one of my projects to another account. All you have to do is:

  1. Go to your Firebase console, and select the project you want to shift.
  2. Select the cog icon besides the project name on top right.
  3. Select Permissions from the flyout.
  4. Select Advanced permission settings hyperlink.
  5. You've reached the IAM & Admin page of Firebase.
  6. Click on +Add button on top.
  7. Enter the email ID of the account that you want to transfer the project to.
  8. In the dropdown, Select a role > Project > Owner. Click add
  9. You will receive a confirmation email. Click the link in the email to accept the invitation.
  10. Accept the invitation, and go to IAM & Admin page of the transferred project.
  11. Use remove button to delete the previous user

Hope this helps.

This is a reply received after emailing to [email protected], which is the official firebase support email after gogle acquired firebase in late 2014.

From: [email protected]
In order to transfer ownership of a Firebase instance, we need you to do two things: add the new owner as a collaborator; then, fill in the form below and email it to us as written verification. This must be sent from the email address which owns the Firebase instance.

----------------- 
REQUEST TO TRANSFER OWNERSHIP
I authorize the Firebase team to make **<new owner’s email>** the owner of https://**<firebase instance>**.firebaseio.com effective immediately. I have added **<new owner’s email>** as a collaborator to verify the email address is correct and to certify that I am the current owner. I understand that I am effectively granting **<new owner’s email>** full read and write access to all stored data for this instance.

For projects on the new Firebase Console (at https://console.firebase.google.com), this is now a self-service process. See the answer to this question: How to add collaborators to a Firebase app? for a step-by-step guide.


It is more simple now.

  1. Click gear icon beside Project Overview
  2. Click on Users and Permissions
  3. Click on Add Member
  4. Type the email address and choose the role as Owner
  5. Click on Add Member

and that's it you are done. An invitation will be sent to the email id. They just need to accept.
