I am working on a job bidding app.
Each user has a field "User job notifications preferences".
The array field stores the data to which type of job they would like to receive notifications for.
for example: Person A has the setting to receive a notification when a job of type 'plumming' is created. Person B has the setting to receive a notification when a job of type 'electrical' is created.
Person C creates a plumming job, Peron A should receive a notification to let them know a new job of type 'plumming' has been created.
here is the code snip
// when a job is updated from new to open
// send notifications to the users that signed up for that jobtype notification
exports.onJobUpdateFromNewToOpen= functions.firestore
.document('job/{docId}')
.onUpdate(async (change, eventContext) => {
const beforeSnapData = change.before.data();
const afterSnapData = change.after.data();
const jobType = afterSnapData['Job type'];
const afterJobState = afterSnapData["Job state"];
const beforeJobState = beforeSnapData["Job state"];
console.log('job updated');
// only consider jobs switching from new to open
if (beforeJobState=="New" && afterJobState == "Open") {
console.log('job updated from new to open');
console.log('jobType: '+jobType);
console.log('job id: '+change.after.id )
// get users that contain the matching job type
const usersWithJobTypePreferenceList = await admin.firestore().collection("user").where("User job notifications preferences", "array-contains-any", jobType).get();
// get their userIds
const userIdsList = [];
usersWithJobTypePreferenceList.forEach((doc) => {
const userId = doc.data()["User id"];
userIdsList.push(userId);
})
// get their user tokens
const userTokenList = [];
for (var user in userIdsList) {
const userId = userIdsList[user];
const userToken = await (await admin.firestore().collection("user token").doc(userId).get()).data()["token"];
userTokenList.push(userToken);
};
// send message
const messageTitle = "new " + jobType + " has been created";
for (var token in userTokenList) {
var userToken = userTokenList[token];
const payload = {
notification: {
title: messageTitle,
body: messageTitle,
sound: "default",
},
data: {
click_action: "FLUTTER_NOTIFICATION_CLICK",
message: "Sample Push Message",
},
};
return await admin.messaging().sendToDevice(receiverToken, payload);
}
}
});
I think the issue is at the following line because I am getting the error 'Error: 3 INVALID_ARGUMENT: 'ARRAY_CONTAINS_ANY' requires an ArrayValue' (see image)
const usersWithJobTypePreferenceList = await admin.firestore().collection("user").where("User job notifications preferences", "array-contains-any", jobType).get();
below is the full error:
Error: 3 INVALID_ARGUMENT: 'ARRAY_CONTAINS_ANY' requires an ArrayValue.

I interpret the error as the following: there is no value being passed to 'jobType'.but that cant be right because I am printing the value ( see screenshot )
I found the following related questions but I dont think I am having the same issue:
Getting firestore data from a Google Cloud Function with array-contains-any
Firestore: Multiple 'array-contains'
So I am not sure what the issue is here, any ideas?
here is how the data looks in firebase:
I looked at similar questions and I printed the values being passed to the function that was creating the error
