Detailed Problem Description

I configure a custom OIDC provider following https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/web/openid-connect#before_you_begin

In my app we have a dialog for the user to choose the login provider to use. Since there are multiple OIDC providers I'd like to use human readble labels. When I create the provider with the provider-id, I would expect an api like provider.GetName() to retrieve that name that I specified when I created the provider.

The api docs don't list such an api: https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/node/firebase.auth.AuthProvider

Steps and code to reproduce issue

See above.

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

I've dumped the provider object and it does not seem to contain the information, so it is more that just adding api for it.

Let me know if I am misunderstanding but I'm creating an OAuthProvider as the instructions in the guide doc you linked say to do and this seems to work?

import { OAuthProvider } from 'firebase/auth';

const provider = new OAuthProvider('custom name');
console.log(provider.providerId); // "custom name"

providerId is e.g. oidc.my-provider´, but when creating the provider in firebase console I named it e.g. "My Provider". I'd like to access the display name to pt it on a button label. I can probably implement some reverse transform, but I won't be able to recover the original name in all cases (e.gMy Super-Providerbecomesoidc.my-super-provider` and I won't know which minus was a space and which a minus).
