When using onCall to perform a remove operation from a realtime database, I encountered an issue where the response only returned null instead of the expected data object. Strangely, I have used onCall for other operations like update and always received a response data object without any problems.
Code snippet for onCall implementation:
exports.DeleteItemToShareRecord = functions.https.onCall((data,context)=>{
const toDeleteRef = admin.database().ref("items_to_share/" + data["deleteID"]);
toDeleteRef.remove().then(() => {
return { "message" : "item to share deleted" };
});
});
Client Implementation:
const deleteShareRecord = httpsCallable( this.functions, 'DeleteItemToShareRecord');
deleteShareRecord({"deleteID" : "" }).then((tresult)=>{ console.log("Delete item resposnse " , tresult); })
Console log:
I received a response like this when trying to delete the item:
{data: null}
data: null
I'm not sure if this is intentional or a bug. Thank you for your help.
