Firebase-tools: firebase: database-push Syntax unclear

[kmuthukrishnan]

Hi, Iam trying to push using

firebase database:push \country -d {"country1" : "Armenia"}

It is giving me an error as follows:
Error: HTTP Error: 400, Invalid data; couldn't parse JSON object, array, or value.

What am I doing wrong? Please help.

You need to do: firebase database:push \country -d '{"country1" : "Armenia"}'

[stwilberth]

firebase database:push /country -d file.json ??

I am also having the problem. The suggested solutions don't work. Has anyone found a solution yet?

[kmuthukrishnan]

Yes, place the Json objects in individual quotes ' '

I tried that but am still unsuccessful.

Here is my command:
=> firebase database:push /country -d '{"country1" : "Armenia"}'
This results in
=> Error: HTTP Error: 400, Invalid data; couldn't parse JSON object, array, or value.

I am running cli version 3.9.1

I used database.set. You could try that.

hey @daverinnadesan , are you running windows? If so, you may need to do:
firebase database:push /country -d "{\"country1\" : \"Armenia\"}"

It's probably an issue with what windows views as an appropriate representation of JSON on the command line. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28648473/windows-curl-with-json-data-on-the-command-line

Hi @laurenzlong, Thank you for your help. That was indeed the problem.

[JiejayLan]

firebase database:set /import data.json This way works

I was working on windows:
and @laurenzlong answer works for me.

firebase database:push /country -d "{\"country1\" : \"Armenia\"}"
