How to add an email provider when the user first signup with social account with Firebase?












0














I am using Firebase for my web application authentification in javascript.



When I try to add an email provider when a user has, at first, signup with a social account (Google), I receive this error message:



{
code: "auth/email-already-in-use",
message: "The email address is already in use by another account."
}

  • The flow to connect multiple providers should work in either direction. If it doesn't work for you, update your question to include the minimal, complete code that reproduces the problem.
