@rrousselGit How would this even be implemented. I don't see anything that's exposed that we can use from the googleapis package.

That's because there isn't at the moment.

But note that I am no longer at Invertase. Working on Firebase Admin isn't my responsibility anymore :)

Sounds good! Do you happen to know who we should be pinging for PR reviews or questions?

Nope!

As Remi pointed out, streaming apis aren't supported yet in the way this library interfaces with googleapis. It's being discussed with Google, but nothing to report at the moment I'm afraid.

what about realtime db?

Any update on this in 2026?
