my firebase.json file is on the root of the proyect

      "firebase.json",
      "**/.*",

      {
        "source": "**",
        "destination": "/index.html"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Error message

Error: firebase.json file not found. If your firebase.json file is not in the root of your repo, edit the entryPoint option of this GitHub action.

Also Ive tried move my firebase.json in diferent paths using entryPoint property, and also shows a relate message error

steps:
      - name: Deploy amazmation-app to firebase-hosting
        uses: FirebaseExtended/action-hosting-deploy@v0
        with:
          repoToken: '${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}'
          firebaseServiceAccount: '${{ secrets.FIREBASE_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_AMAZMATION }}'
          projectId: amazmation
          entryPoint: "config/firebase.json" 

// put into config/firebase.json and also throws error
Error: Error changing to directory config/firebase.json: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, chdir 'D:\a\amzmation-app\amzmation-app' -> 'config/firebase.json'

// try specify root project path and also throws error
 Error: Error changing to directory /firebase: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, chdir 'D:\a\amzmation-app\amzmation-app' -> '/firebase'

Expected behavior

found firebase.json file at the root of my projecy and then deploy app into firebase hosting correctly

Actual behavior

it throws "no found file error", this can be caused by run the action on windows environment?

any advice or suggestion? Do you require me to document something else in my issue?

Is this still happening? Maybe setting entryPoint: "." could help? Everything seems set up correctly from here though.

Hey @AlonsoK28. We need more information to resolve this issue but there hasn't been an update in 7 weekdays. I'm marking the issue as stale and if there are no new updates in the next 7 days I will close it automatically.

If you have more information that will help us get to the bottom of this, just add a comment!

I have the same issue when trying to deploy a Flutter Web App. Generated the firebase.json file trough Firebase CLI and placed it in the root of my repo. All works fine up until deploy, then it says:

Error: firebase.json file not found. If your firebase.json file is not in the root of your repo, edit the entryPoint option of this GitHub action.

This is my full code:

name: Build and deploy to Firebase Hosting

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: subosito/flutter-action@v2
        with:
          channel: 'stable'
      - name: 'Run flutter pub get'
        run: flutter pub get
      - name: 'Run Build'
        run: flutter packages pub run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs
      - name: Enable flutter web
        run: flutter config --enable-web

        run: flutter build web

In my case I have moved my frontend deploy to vercel

I am also having this issue when i connect my firebase with react. As this is my first project using firebase, i followed the steps but the console shows the error : "Error: It looks like you haven't used Cloud Firestore in this project before. Go to https://console.firebase.google.com/project/instagram-clone-007-vitejs/firestore to create your Cloud Firestore database."
