Hi

Version info

firebase-functions: ^0.6.3
firebase-admin: ^5.2.1

Were you able to successfully deploy your functions?

Yes

Expected behavior

I'm trying to insert two user with same email address but with different phone number.
When configure sign-in methods I setup only phone number as authentication provider (Email/password disabled) and I allowed multiple accounts with the same email address.

@katowulf same error of #101 but probably different causes

The snipped code of the function (onWrite) trigger from location /USERS in the Database:

    const auth = admin.auth();
    /* ... */
    if (!event.data.previous.exists()) {
      const userData = event.data.current.val();
      console.log(`A new user was created: ${uid}. Now syncing in Auth...`, userData);
      return auth.createUser({
        uid: uid,
        email: userData.email,
        phoneNumber: userData.phone,
        disabled: false
      }).then(userRecord => {
        console.log(`Done. Created new user in Auth: ${uid}`, userRecord);
        return Promise.resolve(uid);
      }).catch(error => {
        console.error(`Error Creating new user in Auth: ${uid}`, error);
        sendEmail.logEmail(/* ... */);
        return Promise.reject(`${error}`);
      });
    } 

All ok when I enter the first user. The error occurs on the second (with the same email)

the log
