[New Relic integrations](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/infrastructure/introduction-infra-monitoring) with the [Google Cloud Platform (GCP)](https://cloud.google.com/) include one that reports [Google Firebase Authentication](https://firebase.google.com/products/auth) data to New Relic. This document explains how to activate the GCP Firebase Authentication integration and describes the data it reports.

## Features

Firebase Authentication is Google Cloud's identity service that provides easy-to-use SDKs and authentication providers for federated sign-in, phone, email/password, and anonymous auth. New Relic Firebase Authentication integration collects phone verification metrics for each Firebase Auth tenant.

## Activate integration [#activate]

To enable the integration, follow standard procedures to [connect your GCP service to New Relic](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/connect-google-cloud-platform-services-infrastructure):

-   [Connect with Workload Identity Federation](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/connect-google-cloud-platform-services-infrastructure)

## Polling frequency [#polling]

New Relic integrations query your GCP services according to a polling interval that varies by integration. The polling frequency for Google Cloud Firebase Authentication is 5 minutes. The resolution is 1 data point every minute.

## Workload Identity Federation [#wif]

### Find and use data [#find-data-wif]

After you enable the integration, your Firebase Authentication resources appear as entities in the New Relic entity explorer. To see dashboards and manage services, go to [one.newrelic.com > All capabilities](https://one.newrelic.com/all-capabilities) > Infrastructure > GCP.

All Firebase Authentication metrics available in GCP Cloud Monitoring are collected as dimensional metrics in the `Metric` event type. Additional metrics beyond this table are collected automatically. See [Google's Firebase Authentication metrics documentation](https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/api/metrics_gcp_d_h#gcp-firebaseauth) for the complete list.
