"Expected OAuth 2 access token" Error when running Firebase Emulator along side Genkit emulator

[tbusot]

Since initializing Genkit inside an existing Firebase functions and firestore emulator project, I am able to boot them both but any change I make to my code that triggers a hot reload of the functions results in the following error:

functions: Failed to load function definition from source: FirebaseError: 
HTTP Error: 401, Request had invalid authentication credentials. 
Expected OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential. 
See https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/devconsole-project.

I have the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS defined in my env files.

The only way to fix the issue seems to be to kill the emulator, and log out and log back into the firebase sessions with:

$ firebase logout

$ firebase login
