Just today I received the mail that I can now try out Android Studio Cloud inside Firebase Studio.  
Of course I directly tried to create a project. I am logged in with two Google accounts. The link of my project is [https://studio.firebase.google.com/u/1/mensinator-76416722](https://studio.firebase.google.com/u/1/mensinator-76416722) and the Google Account that I used for creating this project is the one I try to access it with (/u/1/).

When opening the above-mentioned link, which is also shown on the Firebase Studio dashboard, a loading screen is shown. After some seconds, a generic 401 Google Error is shown, with these details. I have redacted a bit of information that probably contains sensitive information:

```auto

Hi @CarstenHagemann - if you try in a new Incognito Window with only one account logged in, are you able to bypass this error?

Cheers,

Yep, that way it does work. The project got set up now.

In the “normal” browser with two accounts it’s still broken.
