Did you manage to solve it?

I solve without this action, simple:

      - name: Inizialize Node for Firebase SDK
        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
      - name: Inizialize Firebase SDK and execute commands
        run: |
          npm install -g firebase-tools
          echo "$CREDENTIAL_FILE_CONTENT" > "${{ github.workspace }}/gcp_key.json"
          firebase use --add [PROJECT_ID]
          firebase [YOUR_COMMAND]
        env:
          CREDENTIAL_FILE_CONTENT: ${{ secrets.CREDENTIAL_FILE_CONTENT }}
          GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS: "${{ github.workspace }}/gcp_key.json"

So the solution is to NOT use this action. Got it.
