Firebase Analytics userID

I have an app and would like to do a lot of analyses on the user behaviour. As I understand it, I can link Firebase to BigQuery and export raw data.

What I'm interested in is whether Firebase will provide separate data for each user using the app or just an overall analysis?

In what way can I identify these users? Can I assign each user with a random userID for the purpose of being able to uniquely identify him? Users will have to login into the app but I don't (and can't) use their username as userID.

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot

If you connect Firebase Analytics to BigQuery, you get access to the raw event stream from Firebase in BigQuery. This includes all information that was sent from the client.

You can indeed set the user ID in your code, which will then be available in BigQuery. I'd recommend either using their existing Firebase Authentication UID, or signing them in with an anonymous account and using the UID.
