Firebase realtime-database console not exporting JSON

I am trying to export JSON data from my realtime-database on the firebase console, however for large nodes it is not working.

Previously, the firebase console exported JSON to nodes in offline mode, but now it does not seem to work anymore.

Does anyone know if there was any limitation or is there a problem?

  • I received this response from Firebase Support:

    Hi there,

    I'm Kevin from Firebase Support, and I'll be handling this ticket.

    Are you in "read-only" mode when you experienced the issue with the Realtime Database export? If so, there is already an internal bug filed for this. Our engineering team is already aware of this. However, I can't share any details for now, so I'll have this ticket open to keep you posted with any updates.

    For now, you may try to copy the URL indicated on the error page and paste that on the browser's address bar to manually download the exported data. You can also navigate to a deeper part of your database and export smaller chunks.

    Since you are on Blaze plan, you may also enable the Automated Backups and download the compressed files containing the exported data.

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks, Kevin

    I copied the link to the browser and managed to download the data perfectly.
