Firebase is a platform developed by Google that helps users build and manage mobile and web applications. It offers a suite of cloud-based tools and services designed to streamline development, enhance app functionality, and improve user experience. Its built-in features include real-time databases, cloud storage, authentication, and analytics.
While Firebase is a robust tool on its own, connecting it with the other apps and services you use through automation can significantly enhance its capabilities. With just a few Zaps—what we call automated workflows—you can streamline processes, improve data accuracy, and enhance your overall efficiency with Firebase. Here's how.
