Hey @vmgarcia, thanks for sharing code snippets and the error you encountered. I tried reproducing this issue using the latest version of firebase-tools, which is currently 13.10.0, and no errors were raised when running the code snippet you provided.

Could you try upgrading to the latest version to see if this would resolve the issue?

[vmgarcia]

That fixed it, thanks for the help. For anyone that runs across this issue, to upgrade you need to run

npm update -g firebase-tools

It’s good to know that the issue is now resolved. I’m going to go ahead and close this. Thanks!
