Hi there,
I wanted to ask if did something change recently on the way how or when the Firebase Cloud Functions are triggered. I'm experiencing an "empty log" issue and it seems they don't trigger for me.

I have a cloud function with Event: ref.write on a node (let's say) /a/b/{dataId}

What happens is, that if I change any of the data through the Firebase Console, it does not get triggered.
Our standard (for now) workflow is to go to the node /a/b via the Console and just import the new data from a json file (till we don't create some admin interface for it). When I've noticed the Function is not triggered, I've tried updating one of the nodes individually, but that also did not trigger the cloud function.

We have a dev project and it worked on that one just a few weeks back... and on the production it also used to work.


I'm not sure what are we doing wrong, and also I did not find any note that updates through the Console wouldn't trigger Functions. Could you please confirm how it works?

Thanks,
Tom

There should be no difference that you are using the console, so, could you get in contact with support along with your functions config, project name and path you are using to set the data? then we can dig into logs.
