Good news guys, with the latest improvement to arrays you can add, update and remove an array element.

You can do it like this

//Map to add user to array
final Map<String, Object> addUserToArrayMap = new HashMap<>();
addUserToArrayMap.put("arrayOfUsers", FieldValue.arrayUnion(mAuth.getCurrentUser().getUid()));

//Map to remove user from array
final Map<String, Object> removeUserFromArrayMap = new HashMap<>();
removeUserFromArrayMap.put("arrayOfUsers", FieldValue.arrayRemove(mAuth.getCurrentUser().getUid()));

//use either maps to add or remove user
db.collection("REFERENCE").document("mDocumentId")
                .update(addUserToArrayMap);

How to Add/Update/Remove array elements in firebase firestore?

The short answer is that you cannot! As in the official documentation regarding arrays:

Although Cloud Firestore can store arrays, it does not support querying array members or updating single array elements.

So there is currently no way to add, update or remove a single array element in a Cloud Firestore database.

Seeing your database schema I can say that you don't have any arrays. The availableProducts is an object, beneath it there is a map named 0 which holds two String properties, spName and spPrice. If you want to update, let's say the price, please use the following code:

FirebaseFirestore rootRef = FirebaseFirestore.getInstance();
DocumentReference ref = rootRef.collection("gdgsghs.cok").document("Shsheg");
Map<String, Object> availableProducts = new HashMap<>();
Map<String, Object> zeroMap = new HashMap<>();
Map<String, Object> product = new HashMap<>();
product.put("spPrice", 63.121);
zeroMap.put("0", product);
availableProducts.put("availableProducts", zeroMap);
ref.set(availableProducts, SetOptions.merge());

Your price will be updated from 67.368 to 63.121.
