This sample shows an app for the Google Assistant using Actions on Google that provides the user with a random quote from a Developer Relations Googler by fetching data via an HTTP request to an external URL.
Note: This sample uses Firebase Cloud Functions to make an HTTP request to a non-Google service. The free Firebase Spark Plan only allows outbound network calls to Google services. If you plan to run the sample, you will need to temporarily upgrade to a Firebase plan that allows for outbound networking, such as the Blaze Plan (Pay as you go.).
