Re: [Firebase] Can't import user account with CLI firebase auth:import command

[Jacob Wenger]

Hey Riccardo,

I think your --hash-key argument should just be "helpmeplease", not "aGVscG1lcGxlYXNl" (its base64-encoded form). The CLI itself will base64 encode it for you. I agree the documentation is worded confusingly. I will get it fixed.

Cheers,

Jacob

Hi,
I need to import a list of users, with email and password, in firebase.

I'm trying to import users in firebase using the CLI auth:import command. (https://firebase.google.com/docs/cli/auth-import)


I've choosed the HMAC_MD5 hash-algo,

I'm using helpmeplease as secret string for encritption -> in Base64 becames aGVscG1lcGxlYXNl

I'm using mypass as a test password: crypted with HMAC_MD5 and secret "helpmeplease" it becames 3a52377f6635d298436013953a1ce4dd and in Bas64 becames M2E1MjM3N2Y2NjM1ZDI5ODQzNjAxMzk1M2ExY2U0ZGQ=

I'm using a users.json 

{
  "users": [
    { 
      "localId": "9997",
      "email": "te...@test.com",
      "passwordHash": "M2E1MjM3N2Y2NjM1ZDI5ODQzNjAxMzk1M2ExY2U0ZGQ=",
      "displayName": "9997",
    }
  ]
}


I use the command:
firebase auth:import --hash-algo='HMAC_MD5' --hash-key='aGVscG1lcGxlYXNl' --project='my-project-name-test' users.json
and the result is:

Processing users.json (194 bytes)
Starting importing 1 account(s).
✔ Imported successfully.


and the user is imported in the users database.

BUT .. when I try to login using the auth().signInWithEmailAndPassword('tes...@test.com', 'mypass') .. I get this error:

{ [Error: The password is invalid or the user does not have a password.]
code: 'auth/wrong-password',
message: 'The password is invalid or the user does not have a password.' }


I can't figure out what's wrong.. Can you help me?
Thanks
