Google API Python Client Firebase App Distribution HTTP 400

Question

I'm trying to list my builds that I have uploaded to Firebase App Distribution with the help of the google-api-python-client however I always get a HTTP status code 400.

I have created a service-account.json with full owner rights (for testing)
I have copied my project_id from Firebase Console.
I have copied my app_id from Firebase Console.

My Python script:

import os
from google.oauth2 import service_account
from googleapiclient.discovery import build
from googleapiclient.errors import HttpError

script_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
service_account_file = os.path.join(script_dir, 'service-account.json')
credentials = service_account.Credentials.from_service_account_file(service_account_file)

project_id = credentials.project_id
app_id = "1:310501947997:android:4f5183af1eddc4004eabb4"

service = build('firebaseappdistribution', 'v1', credentials=credentials)

try:
    parent = f"projects/{project_id}/apps/{app_id}"
    app_releases = service.projects().apps().releases().list(parent=parent).execute()
    print(app_releases)
except HttpError as e:
    print('Error response status code : {0}, reason : {1}'.format(e.status_code, e.error_details))

Error response status code : 400, reason : Request contains an invalid argument.

Does somebody have any pointers on what argument is invalid which is causing the HTTP 400?

Answer 1

Your code is using the Project ID. The API requires specifying the Project Number.

parent: string, Required. The name of the app resource, which is the parent of the release resources. Format: projects/{project_number}/apps/{app_id} (required)

Refer to this documentation for more details on the required parameters:

projects().apps().releases().list()
