使用 Firebase 匿名身份验证，错误，JSON 无效

Question

Recently when trying to sign in anonymously with Firebase I get the following error

{"error":{"code":400,"message":"ADMIN_ONLY_OPERATION","errors":[{"message":"ADMIN_ONLY_OPERATION","domain":"global","reason":"invalid"}]}}

The function I am calling is the one provided in the docs

doSignInAnonymously = () => {

   this.auth.signInAnonymously()
}

I don't understand the error code as Error 400 means an Invalid JSON in your request:

Check that the JSON message is properly formatted and contains valid fields (for instance, making sure the right data type is passed in).

I am using a function provided by the API so I don't know how I could have implemented it wrong, or what exactly it means when it says ADMIN_ONLY_OPERATION , why would signing in anonymously have anything to do with an admin?

Does anyone have any experience with this type of error or can see any obvious errors in my use of the function?

my firebase.js file where I have all my authentication functions.

import app from 'firebase/app'
import 'firebase/auth'
import 'firebase/database'
import * as firebase from 'firebase';

const config = {
  apiKey: process.env.REACT_APP_API_KEY,
  authDomain: process.env.REACT_APP_AUTH_DOMAIN,
  databaseURL: process.env.REACT_APP_DATABASE_URL,
  projectId: process.env.REACT_APP_PROJECT_ID,
  storageBucket: process.env.REACT_APP_STORAGE_BUCKET,
  messagingSenderId: process.env.REACT_APP_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID,
}

class Firebase {
  constructor() {
    app.initializeApp(config);

    /* Helper */

    this.fieldValue = app.firestore.FieldValue;
    this.emailAuthProvider = app.auth.EmailAuthProvider;

    /* Firebase APIs */

    this.auth = app.auth();
    this.db = app.firestore();
  }

  // *** Auth API ***

  // eslint-disable-next-line max-len
  doCreateUserWithEmailAndPassword = (email, password) => this.auth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)

  // eslint-disable-next-line max-len
  doSignInWithEmailAndPassword = (email, password) => this.auth.signInWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)

  doSignInAnonymously = () => {

    this.auth.signInAnonymously()
  }

Code at the call site:

<Button
        variant="contained"
        color="primary"
        onClick={() => firebase
              .doSignInAnonymously()
              .then(({ user }) => {
                localStorage.setItem(process.env.REACT_APP_LOCAL_STORAGE, JSON.stringify(user))
                history.push(ROUTES.USER)
               })
              .catch(({ message }) => setErrMessage(message))
        }
>
Continue As Guest
</Button>

• I tried removing the following line as the error is related to a malformed JSON, but this does't seem to help.

localStorage.setItem(process.env.REACT_APP_LOCAL_STORAGE, JSON.stringify(user))

Go to Firebase console and check your Sign-in providers under the Sign-in Methods tab in the Authentication service and make sure Anonymous is enabled.
