Firebase Error: Missing or insufficient permissions only when ran from device
Trying to update a document within my React Native app works fine when I run from the simulator, but fails with error: "Missing or insufficient permissions" when I run from an actual device. I've made sure I'm logged in.
example code that would raise the error:
listing.doc.ref.update(
quantityAvailable: qty
);
//called from an authenticated user who is the author of the listing.
//So the request.auth.uid is equal to the listing.user.id
The pertinent database rules are as follows:
match /listings/document=**
allow read;
allow create: if isSignedIn();
allow update: if isOwner();
...
function existingData()
return resource.data
function incomingData()
return request.resource.data
function currentUser()
return request.auth
function isSignedIn()
return request.auth != null;
function isOwner()
return request.auth.uid == existingData().user.id;

You can add parameters to your isOwner function like thisisOwner(userId)so the condition to your function isOwner will be like thisrequest.auth.uid === userIdthen replace the default wildcarddocument=**withuserId

I was able to fix it by switching to the react-native-firebase library instead of the regular node.js Firebase library. Turns out it's not a permission problem, my permissions are fine, it was a networking issue with react native and the node.js firebase library.
