# Firebase CDN Setup
Firebase CDN (Content Delivery Network) is a feature of the Firebase platform that allows you to host and serve static assets, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, and videos, from a network of edge locations around the world.
## Steps to Set Up Firebase
1. Open the [Firebase website](https://firebase.google.com/).
2. Click on "Get started."
3. Sign in with your Google account.
### Create a New Project
- Name your project (you can use the same project as Google OAuth).

### Configure `fileStrategy` in `librechat.yaml`
Finally, to enable the app use Firebase, you must set the following in your `librechat.yaml` config file.
```yaml
version: 1.0.8
cache: true
fileStrategy: "firebase"
```
For more information about the `librechat.yaml` config file, see the guide here: [Custom Endpoints & Configuration](/docs/configuration/librechat_yaml).

### Step-by-Step Guide to Set Up CORS for Firebase Storage
---
#### **Step 1: Create the CORS Configuration File**
- Open a text editor of your choice.
- Create a new file and name it `cors.json`.
- Add the following configuration to allow access from "https://ai.example.com":
```json
[
{
"origin": ["https://ai.example.com"],
"method": ["GET", "POST", "DELETE", "PUT"],
"maxAgeSeconds": 3600
}
]
```
- Save the file.
---
#### **Step 2: Apply the CORS Configuration**
- Open your terminal or command prompt.
- Navigate to the directory where you saved the `cors.json` file.
- Execute the following command, replacing `<your-cloud-storage-bucket>` with the name of your Firebase Storage bucket:
```shell
gsutil cors set cors.json gs://<your-cloud-storage-bucket>
```
---
#### **Step 3: Verify the CORS Settings**
- To confirm that the CORS settings have been applied correctly, you can retrieve the current CORS configuration with the following command:
```shell
gsutil cors get gs://<your-cloud-storage-bucket>
```
- The output should reflect the settings you specified in the `cors.json` file.
---
#### **Step 4: Test the Configuration**
- Try exporting a convo as png from the allowed origin ("https://ai.example.com").
- If everything is set up correctly, you should not encounter any CORS issues.
---
> **Note:** Always ensure that you're applying CORS settings only for trusted origins to maintain the security of your application. Adjust the allowed methods and headers according to your specific needs.
---
That's it! You've successfully configured CORS for your Firebase Storage bucket to allow requests from a specific origin. Remember to replace `<your-cloud-storage-bucket>` with your actual bucket name and `https://ai.example.com` with your own domain when applying the configuration.
