Hi,

I cant connect my Firebase, it keeps saying check API key and DATABASE URL. I’ve checked it multiple times and it’s correct. What else can I try to fix this problem?

@ricardo.business01xr Are you connecting to the correct Realtime Database and not a different kind? See this recent topic with a similar issue.

> It looks like this is the wrong type of database, you’ll need to connect to a Realtime Database. The screenshot looks like a Firestore database.
