We are currently having two features that require firebase , one is for sign in, sign out etc and the other is for push notification to a specific user. Is there any way we can use 2 firebase projects for one thunkable project or can we use 1 for both features , if so then how to connect specific user notification with firebase , as I was following this tutorial in adding the push notification and as I am a beginner did not understand it from the 3rd step.[Sending notification to specific users using onesignal](http://community.thunkable.com/t/sending-notification-to-specific-user-with-onesignal/150022)

I don’t think you need two Firebase accounts for this @smartnst.tech9d - the purpose of the Firebase in the tutorial you linked to is to store the Push ID - but perhaps @jacob1 can clarify that for us?

We have a built-in push notification component that is maybe a little easier to get started with here:

I have actually set up the push notifications but to send a notification to a specific user I have been following this tutorial as this is the only one I found helpful for setting up my this feature but from the 3rd step onwards I am not understanding it because it is more of said in programming language slang and some steps are hard for me to understand as I am a total beginner and only getting used to this platform, could anyone just briefly explain from the 3rd and 4th step of the topic linked in this message .[Sending notification to specific user](http://community.thunkable.com/t/sending-notification-to-specific-user-with-onesignal/150022)

Yes that’s correct Dom, it’s only used in the tutorial to store pushid

Check out my post in that thread that makes an all block solution to sending push notifications

> Thanks a million to [jacob1](http://community.thunkable.com/u/jacob1) for this great idea! Like many others, I struggled to get this working. Below is a picture of my “all block” solution to sending a push message ('cuz this is Thunkable, right?) You will notice that the Headers do not include the Authorization parameter. Interestingly, when using the include\_player\_ids parameter, the API key is not required. One less piece of secure information you do not need to include in your app. I tried to use the query parameters bloc…
