Cannot set metadata on a Google Storage Object from Node.js using Firebase Admin
0
I am writing a Firebase app and I need to change something in the backend running Node.js
admin.initializeApp({
credential: admin.credential.cert(serviceAccount),
storageBucket: config.get("firebase.storage")
});
I get the bucket from initializing admin and am able to see the existing metadata from that file. Setting it doesn't work:
const myfile = {URL: "/users/1/demo.png"}; //this file exists
const bucket = admin.storage().bucket();
const [metadata] = await bucket.file(redeemable.URL).getMetadata();
console.log(metadata); //this works
if (!metadata.metadata.whitelist) metadata.metadata.whitelist = {};
metadata.metadata.whitelist[req.user.userId] = true;
await bucket.file(myfile.URL).setMetadata(metadata);
Shouldn't the firebase admin have access rights? I also don't get any error.

There's too much missing information here. What exactly doesn't work? Is there an error? What are the values of all the variables in here that we can't see? Try hardcoding values instead so we can see what you intend to do.

setMetadata does not work. bucket and file (the only variables) are correct I can see and console.log the file's metadata but when I set it, it doesn't. It is also missing from the official docs. No error

Metadata does work. Without seeing all the exact values you're dealing with, there's nothing Stack Overflow can do do help. stackoverflow.com/help/mcve

I am very sorry to hear with authority that you are sure it works and that SO cannot help. Can you tell me what exact values do you need? The file string? I can never produce an example that works simply because it needs my access codes to my google storage server which cannot be published. Nothing else is missing. But it is missing from their official docs for Node.js and only mentions setting metadata from the gsutil tool. I did add more code to make it clearer.

When you sayconsole.log(metadata)works, what exactly does it do that meets your expectations? What exactly does the object look like that you're passing to setMetadata? Let's distill this code down to a single call to setMetadata to see if it receives the data you expect.
