[BUG] in sample: quickstarts/taskqueues-backup-images/functions/index.js #1002
Description
Which sample has a bug?
quickstarts/taskqueues-backup-images/functions/index.js
I have created my own queue with minor modifications provided in the Failing Function code used section. If someone can please help resolve the issue, I would really appreciate it.
Sample name or URL where you found the bug
quickstarts/taskqueues-backup-images/functions/index.js
How to reproduce the issue
- create an index.ts file for functions with the below-mentioend code.
- Deploy
executeOrdersfunction to create the queue with the same name. - execute
submitOrderfunction. enqueuefails with message:Unhandled error FirebaseFunctionsError: Queue does not exist.
Failing Function code used (if you modified the sample)
import * as functions from "firebase-functions";
import * as firebaseAdmin from "firebase-admin";
import * as firebaseFunctions from "firebase-admin/functions";
import * as serviceAccount from "../serviceAccount.json";
firebaseAdmin.initializeApp({
credential: firebaseAdmin.credential.cert({
projectId: serviceAccount.project_id,
clientEmail: serviceAccount.client_email,
privateKey: serviceAccount.private_key,
}),
});
export const executeOrders = functions.region(
region,
).tasks.taskQueue({
retryConfig: {
maxAttempts: 2,
minBackoffSeconds: 10,
},
rateLimits: {
maxConcurrentDispatches: 1,
},
}).onDispatch(async (data) => {
functions.logger.info(data);
});
export const submitOrder = functions.region(
region,
).https.onCall(async (data, context) => {
const queue = firebaseFunctions.getFunctions().taskQueue("executeOrders");
functions.logger.info(data);
await queue.enqueue({"orderId": 1});
});
I also have tried to pass in the app object returned from firebaseAdmin.initializeApp to firebaseFunctions.getFunctions() as below, but still the same behavior.
const firebaseAdminApp = firebaseAdmin.initializeApp({
credential: firebaseAdmin.credential.cert({
projectId: serviceAccount.project_id,
clientEmail: serviceAccount.client_email,
privateKey: serviceAccount.private_key,
}),
});
export const submitOrder = functions.region(
region,
).https.onCall(async (data, context) => {
const queue = firebaseFunctions.getFunctions(firebaseAdminApp).taskQueue("executeOrders");
functions.logger.info(data);
await queue.enqueue({"orderId": 1});
});
Steps to set up and reproduce
- Env: node@16
- Typescript
- Deploy queue
executeOrders - Start function emulator or without emulator (I have tried both ways but I get the same behavior.)
- From any client call
submitOrderfunction to enqueue a task in theexecuteOrdersqueue. - Function throws an error when enqueuing the task:
Unhandled error FirebaseFunctionsError: Queue does not exist.even when the queue exists.

Screenshots
Expected behavior
The task should be enqueued under executeOrders queue.
Actual behavior
Error message: Unhandled error FirebaseFunctionsError: Queue does not exist. even when the queue executeOrders exists.

For me I can get around the error with specifying the location of the queue by replacing
.taskQueue("executeOrders");with
.taskQueue("location/us-east1/functions/executeOrders");Unfortunately with this working I get the error Request is missing body.
I got it to work the same way as described here by creating a separate onRequest function

Closing now that #1341 is merged. The cause:
getFunctions().taskQueue("name")assumesus-central1when you pass a bare function name. For a function in another region, pass the full resource name (plurallocations):The samples deploy to
us-central1on purpose so the defaults line up, and both task queue READMEs now say so. Thanks for the detailed thread.
