Features

• 🔍 Search Firestore with an Elastic App Search extension This extension launched at Cloud Next and indexes and syncs the documents from a Cloud Firestore collection to an Elastic App Search deployment. See the product/installation page, or the code for more info.
• 🤫 Securely store secrets for Firebase Extensions If Extensions use configuration values that should stay secret, such as third-party API keys and passwords, they can now store those in Cloud Secret Manager. We're migrating all our official extensions to use secrets for their sensitive parameters.
• 📺 Personalize content with Remote Config (beta) The personalization feature in Remote Config that we announced at Google I/O is now in beta. Personalization automatically optimizes individual user experiences to maximize your app's results through the power of machine learning.
• 💙 Get started with Flutter and Firebase with just a browser It's now easier than ever to get started building beautiful, serverless, cross-platform apps with Firebase and Flutter. Thanks to DartPad (Flutter's online editor), you can skip the setup and get started by opening dartpad.dev and importing the Firebase packages. Or check out this simple chat app.
• 📪 Unaccepted invitations from App Distribution expire after 30 days Invitations to test releases that are sent from App Distribution will now automatically expire if they are not accepted within 30 days. This declutters the Firebase console for your project, and frees up slots for other testers.
