Can I create a user on Firebase Authentication in Cloud Functions Http Trigger?

Question

Is it possible to create users (email/password type) from inside the Cloud Functions? I am searching for reference to this, but found nothing.

Some time ago I faced the exact same problem and this is how I solved it in typescript:

admin.initializeApp();
const db = admin.firestore();
export const createUsr = functions.https.onCall((data) => {

        return admin.auth().createUser({
            email: data.email,
            emailVerified: true,
            password: data.password,
            displayName: data.nombre,
            disabled: false,
            photoURL: data.urldeImagen
        }).then(
            (userRecord) => {
                console.log('Se creó el usuario con el uid: ' + userRecord.uid);
                const infoUsr = {
                    Activo: false,
                    Contrasenia: data.password,
                    Correo: data.email,
                    Foto: data.nombrefoto,
                    Llave: userRecord.uid,
                    Nombre: data.nombre,
                    PP: false,
                    Privilegios: data.privilegios,
                    UrldeImagen: data.urldeImagen
                };
                //update your db 
                return db.collection....
            ).catch((error) => {
                console.log(error);
                return error
            });
        });
