Question 221549 in Flutter Question posted in
The official Flutter documentation can be found here.

Can you access multiple firebase firestore databases in a flutter app

On this web page, it says that you can now have multiple Firestore databases in a google cloud project.
cloud.google.com
Does this also mean that you can access multiple Firestore databases in a single Flutter app? If so, are there any docs that explain how to do this e.g. what does the firebase_options.dart file have in it and does the Flutterfire CLI tool allow you to set up access to more than one Firestore database.

    When it comes to Android, starting with Cloud Firestore version 24.7.0, it:

    Exposed multi-database support for Cloud Firestore.

    This means that we can have multiple Firestore database instances in a single project. However, I cannot see this option in Flutter yet. You can only create an instance by calling FirebaseFirestore.instance or by calling by calling FirebaseFirestore.instanceFor.

    So in my opinion it’s a matter of time until we’ll get the same option in Flutter too.

    Good catch! It looks like the ability to connect to a non-default database isn’t in our Flutter SDKs yet. I just filed issue #11414 on the GitHub repo for it, so follow that to check on its status.
