I have various buckets in google cloud storage which is being created from my backend. I want to import these buckets to firebase. In firebase there is a option to import the google cloud buckets to firebase, but I want to automate these tasks because any number of buckets can be created in my app and I cannot go to firebase always and import the buckets to it. how to do this?

		I had always assumed that firebase storage and GCP cloud storage were the same animals ... meaning that an object in GCS was the same object in firebase storage.

		@Kolban The buckets are the same, but Firebase keeps its own list of buckets for the project.

		What is the process you are mentioning to import the buckets from GCP to Firebase? I ask because I would simply move the bucket with an SDK as mentioned here

		@rsalinas you can check this firebase.googleblog.com/2017/03/… link out to import manually.

		For what I can see in the guide, the UI is only doing a move as if you did it with the SDK, so I would say that you can take this approach too and just move your buckets
