Firebase Auth Encountering the error code 'auth/invalid-tenant-id' when attempting to authenticate users.

The tenant ID used in the authentication request is either incorrect or not configured in the Firebase console.

Understanding Firebase Auth

Firebase Authentication is a powerful tool provided by Google Firebase that enables developers to easily integrate secure authentication into their applications. It supports various authentication methods, including email/password, phone authentication, and federated identity providers like Google, Facebook, and Twitter. Firebase Auth simplifies the process of managing user identities and securing user data.

Identifying the Symptom

When using Firebase Auth, you might encounter the error code auth/invalid-tenant-id. This error typically appears when attempting to authenticate users in a multi-tenant application. The error message indicates that the tenant ID provided is invalid or not properly configured.

Common Observations

  • Authentication requests fail with the error code auth/invalid-tenant-id.
  • Users are unable to log in or access the application.
  • Error messages may appear in the console or application logs.

Exploring the Issue

The auth/invalid-tenant-id error occurs when the tenant ID specified in your authentication request does not match any configured tenant IDs in your Firebase project. This can happen if the tenant ID is misspelled, not configured, or if there is a mismatch between the client and server configurations.

Understanding Tenant IDs

Tenant IDs are used in multi-tenant applications to differentiate between different user groups or organizations. Each tenant ID must be unique and correctly configured in the Firebase console to ensure proper authentication.

Steps to Resolve the Issue

To resolve the auth/invalid-tenant-id error, follow these steps:

1. Verify Tenant ID Configuration

  • Log in to the Firebase Console.
  • Navigate to your project and select Authentication from the left-hand menu.
  • Check the Tenants section to ensure that the tenant ID you are using is correctly configured.

2. Correct the Tenant ID in Your Code

  • Review the code where the tenant ID is specified.
  • Ensure that the tenant ID matches exactly with the one configured in the Firebase console.
  • Update the code if necessary to correct any typos or mismatches.

3. Test the Authentication Flow

  • After making changes, test the authentication flow to ensure that the error is resolved.
  • Monitor the console or application logs for any further errors or issues.
