Firebase User Data
Firebase authentication user data have the following fields:
Field Description
uid Unique ID for the user in your Firebase project.
email User’s email address.
displayName User’s display name (if set).
photoUrl URL of the user's profile photo (if available).
isEmailVerified true if the user has verified their email address.
phoneNumber User’s phone number (if authenticated with phone).
providerId The authentication provider used (e.g., password, google.com).
metadata Contains creation and last sign-in timestamps. Problem: Firebase console only shows five fields: email,
provider, creation date, last access and UID.
getIdToken() Returns a token to authenticate securely with your backend server.

Firebase Email Verification
How to implement
1. Create a function to send verification email
2. Modify the signup function to send email instead of log-in
3. Modify the login function to only accept if the email is verified
4. Implement firebase SDK to control user data and manage users with verified emails*
• Firebase integrates email verification; the problem is
that to see this field you must implement Firebase SDK.
Note that there is no isEmailVerified column present.

Firebase Email Verification (Steps 1 and 2)
• Firebase integrates email verification; the problem is that to see this field you must implement Firebase SDK.
fun signup(email : String,password : String){
private fun sendEmailVerification() {
if(email.isEmpty() || password.isEmpty()){
val user = auth.currentUser _authState.value = AuthState.Error("Email or password can't be empty")
user!!.sendEmailVerification() return
.addOnCompleteListener { task -> }
_authState.value = AuthState.Loading
if (task.isSuccessful) { auth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email,password)
Log.d(TAG, "Email sent.") .addOnCompleteListener{task->
} if (task.isSuccessful){
sendEmailVerification()
} _authState.value = AuthState.Error("Please, confirm your email")
} }else{
_authState.value = AuthState.Error(task.exception?.message?:"Something went wrong")
(1) Send verification email function }
}
}
(2) Sending an email when signup

Firebase Email Verification (Step 3)
• Firebase integrates email verification; the problem is that to see this field you must implement Firebase SDK.
_authState.value = AuthState.Loading
auth.signInWithEmailAndPassword(email,password)
.addOnCompleteListener{task->
if (task.isSuccessful) {
val user = auth.currentUser
if (user != null && user.isEmailVerified) {
_authState.value = AuthState.Authenticated
} else {
_authState.value = AuthState.Error("Email address not verified. " +
"Please check your email before continuing.")
// sendEmailVerification() // opcional: send another verification email
auth.signOut() // opcional: cerrar sesión si no está verificado
}
} else {
_authState.value = AuthState.Error(task.exception?.message ?: "Something went wrong")
}
}
(3) Send an email when signup

Firebase Email Verification (Step 4)
• Implement Firebase SDK admin to manage users. Don’t worry this step will be explained in the following slides…

Firebase SDK Admin – Manage Users

Applications for Mobile Devices
Firebase SDK Admin – Manage Users
It can be implemented in Node.js, Java,
Python, Go and C#.
It allows to manage firebase users exposing
many functions such as:
- get_user
- get_user_by_email
- list_users()

• Step2: Configure Firebase credentials
• Generate new private key -> It will download a new json file
• Rename this json file to “google-services.json”

• Step3: Replace file and run docker container
• Replace the file “google-services.json” inside the firebase-userlist project by
your new file.
• Install docker and run it using the following commands:
• docker build -t firebase-userlist .
• docker run -p 5000:5000 firebase-userlist
