).

On I run:
```
firebase deploy
```
I get this error on the command line:

> HTTP Error: 400, Billing account for project '381106441303' is not found. Billing must be enabled for activation of service(s) 'cloudbuild.googleapis.com,containerregistry.googleapis.com' to proceed.

Please show me how to fix this problem!

The tutorial you're following is very old. Cloud Functions now requires an active billing account. You will need to add one, even if you don't expect to exceed the free allowance.

Consider contacting the author of that article to tell them that they should update their article to be more accurate.

This is a example of scheduler , but this will not work in free account . Billing must be enabled for activation of service(s) 'cloudscheduler.googleapis.com' to proceed.

```
import * as functions from 'firebase-functions';
import {db, notificationSentEvent, deviceData} from './init';

export const dailyDelete = functions.pubsub.schedule( '10 1 * * *' ).onRun(context => {
console.log('At 01:10');
})
```

## It works fine for me you don't have to pay I'm using firebase free tier

1st Downgrade **node version from 10 to 8** on **package.json**

"engines": {
"node": "8"
}
2. **firebase deploy**
3. you'll get **+ Deploy complete!** message above that you'll see

**+ functions[helloWorld(us-central1)]: Successful update operation.**
4. this **us-central** is **my project hosted region** in your case may be differ

prefix to this region **[helloWorld** is my exported function name your case it may
differ get this information from your terminal by **firebase deploy** command
5. After that **your hosted project link will be**

**(exported function name) which is helloWorld**

You can lower the node version from 10 to 8, but you should upgrade your plan to '**Blaze**' as it has the whole free plan, It will only charge you if **you pass the free plan**

If you just want to finish a tutorial, just change **Node version** from 10 to 8 in **package.json**

```json
"engines": {
"node": "8"
}
```
This will now work, but eventually after February 15, 2021 deployment of Node.js 8 functions will no longer be allowed. So, if you want to use cloud functions after this date you must be on Blaze pay-as-you-go billing plan.

You can try this :

firebase deploy --only hosting

If you just want to test or follow the tutorial, see [this][1] answer.

If you want to use at the real projects, follow these steps:

From Firebase FAQ:
> From updates on August 17, 2020, Cloud Functions for Firebase will rely on some additional paid Google services, so You have to add billing, enable Container Registry API and Cloud Storage API to use it.
