Firebase firestore permission denied when execute get data from react-native - firebase

See the image
I used the firestore API to get data from FireBase. But encountered the error as above. I checked the read and write data on Cloud FireStore and found that read permission was allowed but I don't know why it still can't be done. Please help me. thank you so much.
This is my sample code:
See the image

first, you should use catch method, to avoid unhandled promise error. So
.then(() => {}).catch((error) => console.log(error))
second if you got permission error, then you should set your firestore rules correctly. If you are in development state then i suggest set values true like this:
allow read, write : true;

Debug firebase database rules errors

I've a project using firebase realtime database for over 2 years now... it is a big project with many rules and over 1GB data and around 10k users dayly
I was checking the firebase rules monitor and i notice something unwanted
In my happy world there would be ZERO denies and zero errors. The denies I'm monitoring on my own, but I dont know any way to monitore the errors or debug them
I understand that errors come from firebase trying to evaluate some specific rule and it throwing an exception... BUT HOW CAN I DETERMINE WHICH RULE WAS IT? so i can fix the error...
when dealing with the client side firebase only return PERMISSION DENIED without any further explanation so it is impossible to me guess from the client side if this was a normal permission denied or anything related to a rule error [making it impossible to log or debug]
does anyone know ANY WAY to determine which rules are having errors?
================UPDATE===================
I've pasted the rules in this bin

This normally isn't possible with the limitations firebase gives us.
However, a sound solution is to have a catch on your realtime requests that pushes a log object to realtime db in a separate bucket or a dedicated node. Since realtime db writes are fundamentally free besides storage, this creates an environment where you can debug the users' request, their app state, and any data they may be trying to send.
example:
realtimeReference.push({
user: uid,
path: "path/that/failed",
payload: Json.stringify(payload),
meta: {additional:data,etc:etc},
timestamp: firebase.database.ServerValue.TIMESTAMP
})
To ensure that your app isn't always pushing data and to avoid constantly updating your app, you can use global variables with Remote Config:
https://firebase.google.com/docs/remote-config
If you are using cloud functions, you could automatically save all errors into a separate log file with the full trace of the requests chains

List of Firestore Error Codes for Flutter

When using Cloud Firestore in my Flutter application I want to use the error codes to return a localized error message to the user. However, I did not find a list of all the possible error codes that could occur. Is there a list like that or do I have to handle the errors differently?
You can see the list of possible exception codes at the gRPC or at the documentation. But, you need to change the code from uppercase to all lowercase and replace underscore with dash. For example:
PERMISSION_DENIED -> permission-denied
NOT_FOUND -> not-found
And so on.
Also, you need to catch FirebaseException instead of PlatformException in the new version of cloud_firestore.
Please have a look at the exception codes from the firebase firestore documentation.

How to properly call FirebaseFirestore.instance.clearPersistence() in Flutter?

I'm facing the same problem as this guy question
But his accepted answer didn't helped me.
The problem:
When an user signs out, and another different user signs in, all data shown on my app is from the previous signed out user due to firebase caching system. I searched about this issue and found a solution that consists in calling this method:
FirebaseFirestore.instance.clearPersistence();
But everytime and everywhere I place this line of code, throws an exception saying I cannot call this method when the client is running:
Exception has occurred.
PlatformException (PlatformException(failed-precondition, Operation was rejected because the system is not in a state required for the operation's execution. If performing a query, ensure it has been indexed via the Firebase console., {code: failed-precondition, message: Operation was rejected because the system is not in a state required for the operation's execution. If performing a query, ensure it has been indexed via the Firebase console., nativeErrorMessage: Persistence cannot be cleared while the client is running., nativeErrorCode: 9}))
so, how to call this method? or better, is there a best way to solve this problem?
It seems it's necessary to terminate the FirebaseFirestore.instance first.
At the end of my log off method I call:
await FirebaseFirestore.instance.terminate();
await FirebaseFirestore.instance.clearPersistence();
I get no errors thrown and everything seems to be working as it should now.
You should call it immediately after you initialize Firebase, and before you make the first query.
add this to your Login Button 'onPressed':
FirebaseFirestore.instance.terminate();
FirebaseFirestore.instance
.clearPersistence()
.then((value) => signinUser(email, password, context));

Firebase Functions: Unclear "connection error"

I am getting this error every so many runs with my HTTP Firebase Cloud Function:
Function execution took ****ms, finished with status: 'connection error'
It happens inconsistently but I can't quite narrow down what the problem is. I don't believe the error is in my app as it's not showing an error printout. And my own connection with firebase while running this cloud function isn't cutting out.
Any ideas why Firebase randomly fails cloud function executions with "connection error"?
Function execution took ****ms, finished with status: 'connection error' or ECONNRESET usually happens when a function doesn’t know whether a promise resolved or not.
Every promise must be returned, as mentioned in the docs here. There is also a blog post (with helpful video!) about this.
A couple of examples of unreturned promises:
exports.someFunc = functions.database.ref('/some/path').onCreate(event => {
let db = admin.database();
// UNRETURNED PROMISE
db.ref('/some/path').remove();
return db.ref('/some/other/path').set(event.data.val());
});
exports.makeUppercase = functions.database.ref('/hello/{pushId}').onWrite(event => {
return event.data.ref.set('world').then(snap => {
// UNRETURNED PROMISE
admin.database().ref('lastwrite').set(admin.database.ServerValue.TIMESTAMP);
});
});
exports.makeUppercase = functions.database.ref('/hello/{pushId}').onWrite(event => {
// UNRETURNED PROMISE
event.data.ref.set('world').then(snap => {
return admin.database().ref('lastwrite').set(admin.database.ServerValue.TIMESTAMP);
});
});

Even though this question has an approved answer, you may have followed the steps in that answer and still reached a point where the error was still occurring.
In that case, we were informed by GCP that there's a known issue with Node 8 CFs and this connection error, for which the workaround is to update the node version to 10.

I think it might be too many simultaneous firebase database connections :/ https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/firebase-talk/4RjyYIDqMVQ
I faced the same issue while deploying uninstallTracking event to firebase for android device,
Turns out that the property I was trying to access was available for only some users ,
So when it couldn't find the property for those other users it gives this error
So first just check the property you are trying to access is there or not
I've been getting this on an HTTP trigger that immediately calls response.end() with no other code!
I had a very complex function that was working great then it stopped working due to this error. I tried for hours playing with my code until there was nothing left but a response.end() and still the error persisted.
I found that by deleting the trigger (deploying my triggers with the offending trigger commented out), then deploying again with the trigger uncommented seems to have fixed it.
Perhaps there is a bug that works in that gets reset when you delete the trigger in the cloud.
Hope this saves somebody some frustration.
it could be outdated libraries.
go to terminal
inside functions folder write command
npm outdated
this will show all libraries to require to be updated.
To update libraries write command
npm update
deploy cloud functions with
firebase deploy --only functions
For debugging purposes, I did the following:
response.send(someArray.length)
...which resulted in the following:
response.send(218)
...which resulted in a bodyless response, just a "status code" (namely 218) being sent. To fix this, I did:
response.send("count: " + someArray.length)

Cloud Functions for Firebase sometimes have Invalid credential error

Not appear every time, but sometimes this error appears in the log:
FIREBASE WARNING: {"code":"app/invalid-credential","message":"Credential implementation provided to initializeApp() via the \"credential\" property failed to fetch a valid Google OAuth2 access token with the following error: \"read ECONNRESET\"."}
Is there any way to handle this kind of error like retry?
Or is it okay to ignore it?
Just ensure that your machine time auto sync. and not manualy,
And your XXX......json from firebase is the latest downloaded. (if you dont sure, download it again - and this file will be the newer one)
that what helped me.
I am also facing this issue. Looks like it retries and get the job done but cloud functions are taking time to process data.
