save id SetDocument in document

[FrancescoIoppolo]

Is there a method to retrieve the id of the document I'm creating to save it within the data?

const addDocument = async (image) => {
try {
const result = await FirebaseFirestore.addDocument({
reference: 'problems',
data: {
id:addDocument.id, // example
roomName: formData.camera,
problemType: formData.problemType,
description: formData.description,
priority: formData.priority,
startTimeProblem: new Date(),
image: image,
userId: user.nome,
actionId: formData.problemType
},
});

For example, you could first create an empty document, retrieve the ID and then update it. Or you could use the setDocument(...) method and define a custom ID.

Ok, great tips! I thought there was a way to recover it quickly. Thank you so much for the great work you do every day 💪💪💪

If it helps, I solved it using a Firebase function.

exports.addUidproblems = functions.firestore.document('problems/{problemId}')
.onCreate((snapshot) => {
const problemId = snapshot.id;
const logRef = admin.firestore().collection('problems').doc(problemId);
return logRef.set(
{
problemId: problemId,
},
{ merge: true }
);
});
