How to disable Cloud Firestore?


I'm using Realtime Database in Firebase and by accident, I clicked on Cloud Firestore. Since then whenever I want to access Realtime Database it defaults to Cloud Firestore and I have to click and choose the database I'm using, super annoying. Is there a way to disable or delete it?

Solution

  • Is there a way to disable or delete it?

    There is no way you can disable either Cloud Firestore or the Realtime Database from your Firebase console. The simplest solution I can think of is to save a bookmark in your browser pointing to:

    https://console.firebase.google.com/project/firebaseProjectId/database/yourProjectName/data

    You can also copy and paste the URL that you need and it will point directly to your Realtime Database project. In this way, you'll skip the initial steps.
