REST Api implementation in Firebase Functions

Question

I am currently implementing Rest API standards in firebase functions. I am searching for an option for passing id as params. But I am not sure where my current Implementation was sufficient to change like that.

My code looks like this.

export const user = functions.https.onRequest(userModule);

and the URL will be like

https://firebaseapp<baseurl>/user

I need to pass the user id in the URL(not as query param)

expected URL

https://firebaseapp<baseurl>/user/{userId}

Is there any way to make the URL look like the above in firebase functions?

Can you share what userModule is? If that's an instance of Express app then you can follow my answer. — Dharmaraj

You can use Request object from Express to access the path parameters using params property as shown below:

app.get("/user/:userId", (req, res) => {
  console.log("Path params", req.params); // { userId: "USER_ID" }
  res.json(req.params);
}));
