title: Authenticating to Firebase in a Powershell Script
body: <p>What I have: I've built a script that pulls information about my printers, converts that information to a JSON object, with the goal of pushing that object to Firebase using its Rest API. </p>
  
  <p>What I know: Firebase appears to be using whats called JWT (JSON Web Tokens).</p>
  
  <p>The script that I have is dated. I never took the time to set up authentication previously, and want to implement it now. However, now auth isn't as simple as getting your Secret from the Firebase Console. </p>
  
  <p>I'm sure a direct answer isn't likely (here is how you auth to firebase using powershell). There seems to be some JWT modules for powershell, and I'm wondering if I might be able to use those to attempt to authenticate to Firebase. Maybe there are better options I'm just not seeing. </p>
  
  <p>Any thoughts would be appreciated! </p>
