Solution 1

If this error occurs when you run addTodo() it means that the user doesn't have permission to write to the todos collection. Access to Firestore data is controlled through its server-side security rules.

To simply allow anyone to write to todos use a rule such as this:

service cloud.firestore {
  match /databases/{database}/documents {
    match /todos/{document=**} {
      allow read, write: if true;
    }
  }
}

But I highly recommend you read the documentation so that you can write more secure rules that match the needs of your app.

Solution 2

In firestore, if you got any permission denied.This because firestore security rules.

In this case , Goto your database rules section and change if false into if true

allow read, write: if true;

    I'm trying to firestore documents through react native app, but facing the following issue

    Here is the code

    constructor() {
        super();
        this.ref = firebase.firestore().collection('todos');
      }
    

    and we are triggering button click

    addTodo() {
          this.ref.add({
            title: this.state.textInput,
            complete: false,
          });
        }
    

    we are facing this issue

    Error: Firestore: The caller does not have permission to execute the specified operation. (firestore/permission-denied). Error: Firestore: The caller does not have permission to execute the specified operation. (firestore/permission-denied).
