Problem with Cloud Firestore adding document - Android Studio

Question

pls help me with this tinny issue

I've this android code:

private ArrayList serviceNameList = new ArrayList();

serviceNameList.add("windows");
serviceNameList.add("linux");
serviceNameList.add("mac");

then, i use firestore to save my data:

Map<String, Object> service = new HashMap<>();
            service.put("full_name", full_name.getText().toString());
            service.put("Services_names", Collections.singletonList(serviceNameList));

            firestore.collection("service").document("new_service")
                    .set(service)
                    .addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Void>() {
                        @Override
                            public void onSuccess(Void aVoid) {
                                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Success..!",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                            }
            })
                    .addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
                        @Override
                            public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception e) {
                                String error = e.getMessage();
                                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Error: " + error,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        }
            });

all works fine when i comment or delete this line:

service.put("Services_names",Collections.singletonList(serviceNameList));

But when i enable it again my app fail... I want to know what can i do for solve this...

Thank you..!!!!

It is clearly written Invalid data. Nested arrays are not supported. You should try to save it another way like json etc — Rahul Khurana

What are u trying to insert? Is it a file or data? If you are trying to insert data, better use firebase realtime database, or it is a file, there is some other way — Akshatha S R

If you want to store an ArrayList data into Firestore, first iterate the entire ArrayList. Then, pass that variable only into HashMap.

private ArrayList serviceNameList = new ArrayList();

serviceNameList.add("windows");
serviceNameList.add("linux");
serviceNameList.add("mac");

Map<String, Object> service = new HashMap<>();
service.put("full_name", full_name.getText().toString());
service.put("Services_names", serviceNameList);

Kotlin

val serviceNameList = ArrayList<Any>()

serviceNameList.add("windows")
serviceNameList.add("linux")
serviceNameList.add("mac")

val service: MutableMap<String, Any> = HashMap()
service["full_name"] = full_name.getText().toString()
service["Services_names"] = serviceNameList

Here is the code to upload a file to firestore

FirebaseStorage storage = FirebaseStorage.getInstance();
StorageReference storageReference = storage.getReference();

private void uploadImage() {
        if (filePath != null) { //path of the file you want to upload
            final ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
            dialog.setTitle("Uploading...");
            dialog.show();

            StorageReference ref = storageReference.child("images/" + UUID.randomUUID().toString());
            ref.putFile(filePath)
                    .addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<UploadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {
                        @Override
                        public void onSuccess(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
                            dialog.dismiss();
                            System.out.println("image uploaded path " + taskSnapshot.getUploadSessionUri());
                            Toast.makeText(ListActivity.this, R.string.upload_success, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                        }
                    })
                    .addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
                        @Override
                        public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception e) {
                            dialog.dismiss();
                            Toast.makeText(ListActivity.this, R.string.upload_failure, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                        }
                    })
                    .addOnProgressListener(new OnProgressListener<UploadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {
                        @Override
                        public void onProgress(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
                            double progress = (100.0*taskSnapshot.getBytesTransferred()/taskSnapshot
                                    .getTotalByteCount());
                            dialog.setMessage("Uploaded "+(int)progress+"%");
                        }
                    });

        }
    }
