Right now, my web-apps Thunkable have stopped accessing my database in Firebase, using Live Test Web. I also can’t log in to my Firebase project anymore. The return from Firebase is “Your API key is invalid, please check you have copied it correctly”. I don´t change any think. I had this problem in the past.

Any idea? Bug?

A few weeks ago…

@caminostudio I’m seeing the same in web preview.

I’ve also noticed this on Android, though this was for the sign in component and I am unsure if this is related.
