How this extension works

If the number of nodes in your specified Realtime Database path exceeds the specified max count, this extension deletes the oldest nodes first until there are the max count number of nodes remaining.
Additional setup

When you use Firebase Extensions, you're only charged for the underlying resources that you use. A paid-tier billing plan is only required if the extension uses a service that requires a paid-tier plan, for example calling to a Google Cloud Platform API or making outbound network requests to non-Google services. All Firebase services offer a free tier of usage. Learn more about Firebase billing.
