Test Lab could not create a test matrix because required permissions are not set. Please verify that required APIs are properly enabled

Question

I currently have firebase setup and working on my device, I make sure of the storage and real time database and they both work great!

I thought I'd give the robo test a go to see what it does as it mentioned I would not need to add anymore code. Although when attempting to run the robo test with just the default 1 device ( Nexus 5g 23 ) I get the following error:

Normally I would assume I need to go into firebase within Android Studio and setup the gradle to enable this type of testing but the only option I have is the following.

which leads me to the more standard type of testing. I do not believe this is necessary for the Robo lab testing from my understanding (although I may be incorrect).

What's going on how can I use the Robo test? Thanks

This message is probably refering to the APIs enabled for the Firebase project being used to run the tests.

The project selector is shown in the upper-left corner of the Firebase web console (console.firebase.google.com). All of the required APIs are supposed to be enabled when a Firebase project is first created, or when a Google Cloud project is imported into Firebase. It is possible that one of the APIs was disabled or that this process didn't succeed.

Visit https://console.developers.google.com/apis/dashboard?project=your-project-id and take a look at which APIs are enabled. Test Lab uses the "Google Cloud Testing API".

Here is the list of APIs that are enabled for one of the projects that I use for Test Lab.
