I am developing a project with Firebase backend, utilising Firebase Functions. I actually two projects: myProject and myProject-test (used for deployment testing).

When submitting API calls, my (React) front-end is configured to call the myProject-test URL when running in local development, and only direct the calls to myProject when deployed on PROD.

The problem I am facing is that when I start my cloud functions emulator using firebase emulators:start, my cloud functions get started on the localhost:5001/myProject/... url instead of localhost:5001/myProject-test/..., and hence the API calls from my local development instance never arrive.

How can I control for which project the emulators start?

This is what the firebase use command is for. Read the documentation on managing aliases. You can run the command firebase use PROJECT_ID|ALIAS to set the current project or alias that is currently use use for the emulator or other commands.
