Can Firebase give manually added objects an unique key?

Question

Is it possible when adding data manually to the Firebase database, through the dashboard, to let Firebase give each new object an unique key?

Answer 1

No, you cannot. To achieve this, you need to use the push() method programmatically. This method will generate a unique key that can be saved in your database and used later in your project.

Please see official documentation regarding saving data into a Firebase database.

Hope it helps.
