Linking two different projects to the same Firestore Database in FlutterFlow

Database & APIs

I'm working on two different FlutterFlow projects:

  • First project → Customer App (will be published on App Store / Play Store)

  • Second project → Admin Dashboard (to manage all app data like coupons, stores, users, etc.)

Both projects are connected to the same Firebase project and same Firestore database.

The issue:

  • Data appears normally in Firebase Console.

  • But inside FlutterFlow (Admin Dashboard project) I can't see the existing collections or data from the first project.

  • It looks like I have to manually create all collections again inside each FlutterFlow project — which doesn't make sense if I already have a live database connected.

    My Question:

    Is there any way to automatically fetch existing collections & data from Firestore directly into FlutterFlow without manually rebuilding them in each project?

    Or is there any setting that allows syncing database schema between multiple FlutterFlow projects connected to the same Firestore?

What have you tried so far?
  • Connected both projects to the same Firebase Project ID.

  • Generated Config Files from FlutterFlow for both.

  • Tried adding a test document directly from Firebase Console → data doesn't show automatically in Admin Panel.

  • Tried to refresh and sync → still nothing shows unless I rebuild the collection manually.

Did you check FlutterFlow's Documentation for this topic?
Yes
