When you understand how App Check will affect your users and you're ready to proceed, you can enable App Check enforcement.
Enabling enforcement
To begin enforcing App Check token requirements in your callable Cloud Functions, modify your functions to check for valid App Check tokens, as shown below. Once you enable enforcement, all unverified requests will be rejected.
Install the Cloud Functions SDK.
Node.js (1st gen)
Update your project's
firebase-functions
dependency to version 4.0.0 or newer:npm install firebase-functions@">=4.0.0"
Node.js (2nd gen)
Update your project's
firebase-functions
dependency to version 4.0.0 or newer:npm install firebase-functions@">=4.0.0"
Python (preview)
Add
firebase-functions
tofunctions/requirements.txt
:firebase-functions >= 0.1.0
Then, update the dependencies in your project's virtual environment:
./venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
Enable the App Check enforcement runtime option for your function:
Node.js (1st gen)
const functions = require("firebase-functions/v1"); exports.yourV1CallableFunction = functions .runWith({ enforceAppCheck: true, // Reject requests with missing or invalid App Check tokens. }) .https.onCall((data, context) => { // context.app contains data from App Check, including the app ID. // Your function logic follows. ... });
Node.js (2nd gen)
const { onCall } = require("firebase-functions/v2/https"); exports.yourV2CallableFunction = onCall( { enforceAppCheck: true, // Reject requests with missing or invalid App Check tokens. }, (request) => { // request.app contains data from App Check, including the app ID. // Your function logic follows. ... } );
Python (preview)
from firebase_functions import https_fn @https_fn.on_call( enforce_app_check=True # Reject requests with missing or invalid App Check tokens. ) def your_callable_function(req: https_fn.CallableRequest) -> https_fn.Response: # req.app contains data from App Check, including the app ID. # Your function logic follows. ...
Redeploy your functions:
firebase deploy --only functions
Once these changes are deployed, your callable Cloud Functions will require valid App Check tokens. The Cloud Functions client SDKs automatically attach an App Check token when you invoke a callable function.
Replay protection (beta)
To protect a callable function from replay attacks, you can consume the App Check token after verifying it. Once the token is consumed, it cannot be used again.
Note that using replay protection adds a network round trip to token verification, and therefore adds latency to the cloud function call. For this reason, most apps typically enable replay protection only on particularly sensitive endpoints.
To consume tokens, set consumeAppCheckToken
to true
in your function
definition:
Node.js (1st gen)
const functions = require("firebase-functions/v1");
exports.yourV1CallableFunction = functions
.runWith({
enforceAppCheck: true, // Reject requests with missing or invalid App Check tokens.
consumeAppCheckToken: true // Consume the token after verification.
})
.https.onCall((data, context) => {
// context.app contains data from App Check, including the app ID.
// Your function logic follows.
...
});
Node.js (2nd gen)
const { onCall } = require("firebase-functions/v2/https");
exports.yourV2CallableFunction = onCall(
{
enforceAppCheck: true, // Reject requests with missing or invalid App Check tokens.
consumeAppCheckToken: true // Consume the token after verification.
},
(request) => {
// request.app contains data from App Check, including the app ID.
// Your function logic follows.
...
}
);
When you enable this feature for a particular Cloud Function, you must also update your app client code to acquire consumable limited-use tokens when you call the function:
Swift
let options = HTTPSCallableOptions(requireLimitedUseAppCheckTokens: true)
let yourCallableFunction =
Functions.functions().httpsCallable("yourCallableFunction", options: options)
do {
let result = try await yourCallableFunction.call()
} catch {
// ...
}
Web modular API
import { getFunctions, httpsCallable } from "firebase/functions";
const yourCallableFunction = httpsCallable(
getFunctions(),
"yourCallableFunction",
{ limitedUseAppCheckTokens: true },
);
await yourCallableFunction();
Kotlin+KTX
val yourCallableFunction = Firebase.functions.getHttpsCallable("yourCallableFunction") {
limitedUseAppCheckTokens = true
}
val result = yourCallableFunction.call().await()
Java
HttpsCallableReference yourCallableFunction = FirebaseFunctions.getInstance().getHttpsCallable(
"yourCallableFunction",
new HttpsCallableOptions.Builder()
.setLimitedUseAppCheckTokens(true)
.build()
);
Task<HttpsCallableResult> result = yourCallableFunction.call();
