To add to @aravindvnair99 comment I also have started experiencing this recently with no change to the code.

Functions deploys started to fail intermittently from 03/10/2020.

When deploying I get the same error as above for random functions each deploy. Following the link to the logs the console returns: DENIED: Unable to write blob. This can be resolved by clearing the image for the failed function and redeploying. However it continues to fail on subsequent builds this is happening > 33% of the time.

I am using the Node 12 image it seem to be more reliable with Node 8 however this is now deprecated.

I ended up resolving this issue by deleting the entire bucket (not just its contents) and then redeploying the functions since then I have not seen the issue again

@aravindvnair99 thanks for following up!

@samtstern I’m also getting:

!  functions[app(us-central1)]: Deployment error.
Build failed: Build error details not available. Please check the logs at <URL_REDACTED>


Functions deploy had errors with the following functions:
        app


To try redeploying those functions, run:
    firebase deploy --only "functions:app"


To continue deploying other features (such as database), run:
    firebase deploy --except functions

Error: Functions did not deploy properly.
