iOS build failed (Firebase native SDK)

[abacus-engineering]

IOS development build fails on EAS after integrating Firebase native SDK using this doc and this.

Build & Integration works perfectly on Android but fails on IOS.

workflow : managed
eas-cli: 2.1.0
sdk : 45.0.5

Hi,

This thread suggests that a fix for this issue was put in around React Native 69.1, meaning that you may have better luck with SDK 46 and the latest version of React Native Firebase (which requires the use_frameworks build config). Alternatively, you could try an older version of React Native Firebase, though it would take some work to figure out what the last compatible version is.

Hi, I upgraded my project to SDK 46, as you suggested, and it solved the error (Thanks).

But I ran into another error; I was getting the error below.

I tried using a lower version of React Native Firebase, but it is still the same.

I decided to upgrade to SDK 47, and that solved the problem.

Thanks a lot for the help.
