User role for Firestore manage in Google cloud

I can't figure it out which role/s do I need to have on one of my client's Google Cloud Platform, to do the following: - Connect and Manage a Firestore database to their Firebase app. - Use the Google Cloud Firestore API from an external app.

There are so many roles... Any help? :) I have already Firebase Analytics Admin but when I tried to access the Firestore through Firebase I get the message "To manage Cloud Firestore, ask a project owner for the necessary permissions".

Thanks!

According to the Firebase product-category predefined roles documentation, the only role that has full read/write access to Cloud Firestore is:

Firebase Develop Admin - roles/firebase.developAdmin

Regarding the access to the API, the app will be able to access it using either a Firebase Authentication ID token or a Google Identity OAuth 2.0 token as per referenced on this documentation.

In order to set up Firebase Auth, this link might be of help and for OAuth check this link.
