I am developing an android app using firebase as a server and agora video stream platform for the 1 on 1 video chat. The app working with the temporary token given by the agora. But agora wants me to generate token from the server to use app in production. I do not have any server for my app. I just use the firebase platform.
Is it possible to generate token for agora using firebase platform?
thanks for your help.
You don't need a full backend server, you could run this using Firebase Cloud functions.
The Agora token generation does not require an always on server, just to be deployed on an infrastructure you control as a developer so that you can connect it with your user-management system so that you as a developer have more control over which users can generate tokens and connect to channels and communicate with users.
I've written this guide on deploying a Golang web service but you can adapt it to a cloud function.
