i have developed a Instagram Application Clone and registered the app in Firebase too, Generated and Added "GoogleService Plist". I was successful in running the application in the simulator but when i am trying to register through the application it is showing :

I have added the permissions in Firebase Database too:
Please tell where i am wrong and what i have to do to resolve this issue. Do i need to add child nodes manually in Firebase? If yes , then please guide with steps. I am having very less idea about FireBase database and I am still in a learning Phase. Any help will be appreciated
