Steps to Set Up Firebase in DragBuilder

Step 1: Create a Firebase Project

1. Go to the Firebase Console.
2. Click on “Add project” or “Create a project”.
3. Enter a project name and follow the on-screen instructions to create your Firebase project.

Step 2: Obtain Your Firebase Project ID

1. In the Firebase Console, navigate to your project’s Settings:
   • Click on the gear icon next to “Project Overview”.
   • Select “Project settings” from the dropdown.
2. Under the “Your project” section, locate and copy your Project ID.

Step 3: Configure Firebase in DragBuilder

1. Open your DragBuilder project.
2. Navigate to Settings > Firebase in the DragBuilder menu.
3. Paste the Project ID you copied from Firebase into the Project ID field.
