[firestore-send-email] Only works on (default) database

[BOXNYC]

I have multiple databases, “(default)” and “development”. I have firestore-send-email extension installed from the Extentions tab and another one installed from after I select the “development” database.

They are configured identically but it only sends an email when I add a document to the “(default)” database ‘mail’ collection.

When I look at the processQueue Cloud Function the extension creates, it has an Environment Variable DATABASE_INSTANCE that is empty. When I try to set it to "development" through the Firebase Console, I get an error "Users can't set environment variables, only the system can." (not verbatim)

Hi there, yes extensions only support events on the (default) firestore instance currently. This is blocked as v2 cloud functions are not fully supported in extensions. I will relabel this as a feature request for now.
