I swear I have obeyed every step the thunkable docs told me to establish a personal real time database. I have got the API Key and Database URL and filled in the App Setting on Thunkable,but still I can not upload or get my data from real time database,how could that happen?Where the problem is? ![QQ截图20220107160840](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/f/d/fdbc6c87f3399995a8046ba32f7c944725b1c7d2.png) ![QQ截图20220107161537](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/1/6/16351268ca27ec15faaeadc9d04c679dae8ca020.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/2/32f35f9493772f109de032c25d6f6f10acd3eee4.png) ---

Can you explain what you want to happen? Are you getting **ERROR** or **DONE** after you run this code? ---

I think he expects to find in his realtime database something like: - qwer - QWER and instead, he finds .null. The only thing i can think is to remove your Realtime\_DB1 from app, check again that in project properties are good credentials (API key and Database URL), then after add again a realtime database… Maybe something happened with that. ---

If he displays the error produced by the `Firebase block` then we can maybe know what is going on. Now we are clueless about the situation. ---

Echoing @mimostel . This could be the case however. Hé may has forgotten to Read and write to `true` ---

That is why the first step he needs to do is to display the error block in a label so we can see what to suggest that he should do. ---

Dear @tatiang Can you close this post? As I believe it is just the same as this which you have closed already. > [@Firebase Authentication error](https://community.thunkable.com/t/firebase-authentication-error/85771): > > Hi guys I don’t know what’s wrong with my firebase authentication,i can’t find my app user’s account and ID in the firebase “Authentication” section,and this is happening for the second time…Every signup details are wiped off,someone please help out,am still on SPARK PLAN Though,could that be the problem? ---
