Hi there @balanaguyashwanth,
If you have a firewall on your Droplet like UFW, you need to make sure that you open the port for outgoing connections.
You can do that by following the steps from this article here:

Another thing that you might have to do is allow your Droplet’s IP address to your Firebase Database so that your Droplet could connect to the database.
