Answer 2

When installing the extension it will ask you to enable the secrets API, what this does is enables the Secrets Manager API from google cloud (what firebase is built on top of). You can manually check this is enabled with the below URL, and if its not - enable it.

https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/api/secretmanager.googleapis.com/overview?project=YOUR_PROJECT_ID

As with all google cloud API's, when you enable them it takes a few minutes for the changes to propagate. Try again in ten minutes, and you will find your error is resolved, you're able to create the secret, and you can install the extension.

It seems like the issue might be related to your billing account. There could be an issue with your billing details, similar to an experience I had. It's worth double-checking to ensure everything is in order.
