A project in Firepanel maps to a Firebase project. Once connected, Firepanel gives you a full admin console to manage that project's data.
Creating Your First Project
Open the Projects page
After signing in, you will land on the Projects page. Click the New Project button.
Enter a project name
Give your project a descriptive name. This is only used inside Firepanel and does not need to match your Firebase project name.
Connect your Firebase project
You will be asked to provide your Firebase project credentials. Firepanel uses a service account key to securely connect to your Firebase project.
In the Firebase Console:
- Go to Project Settings → Service Accounts
- Click Generate new private key
- Download the JSON file
- Upload it in the Firepanel project wizard
Note:
Keep your service account key private. Never share it publicly or commit it to version control.
Complete setup
Review the configuration and click Create Project. Firepanel will verify the connection and set up your project.
What's Next?
Your project is now ready. From the Project Dashboard you can:
- Browse your Firestore collections and documents
- Define content types to structure your data
- Manage users and their access
- Explore Cloud Storage files
Note:
If you already have a project set up and want to replicate it, see Cloning a Project.
