Firebase Remote Config: The provided JSON file is not formatted like a Remote Config


I am using Firebase's Remote Config service. I am trying to upload a "config from JSON file" as their options suggest, but am shown this error:

enter image description here

Yet, I'm not sure why my JSON is invalid. Here is the file (remote_config.json):

{
    "messages": {
        "welcome_message": "Welcome",
        "other_message": "Hello, there!"
    },
    "app_features": {
        "feature_one_enabled": false,
        "feature_two_enabled": true
    }
}

Solution

  • Your JSON looks quite different than the example in the documentaton on remote config templates.

    To ensure you use the correct format, I recommend creating the template in the Firebase console, downloading it through the API, and then modifying the downloaded template.
