amazing tutorial man .. Can you please help me with something though .. I have made a list of 3 users .. each user has a name, a usertype ... etc.
how can I loop through them ?
meaning user1 has (name, usertype .. etc.) .... user2 has (name, usertype .. etc. ) .. how do i make unreal loop through them to get the data associated with email that has signed in using firebase authentication ?

Hi, thanks.
The structure of Realtime Database is like a large JSON object.
In order to loop, the data will need to be in an array.
That structure will be hard to update the data for each user if a change needs to be made.
However, there is an update to include Firestore for the plugin that is currently being reviewed by Unreal Engine. Should be available in 1-2 weeks.
The nodes will be almost identical so you can easily switch between the two when it comes out.
The difference is that Firestore stores data in collections which you can easily get users from a collection and loop.
Realtime Data is mainly used to store and retrieve data quickly.
Firestore is the same except you can do a lot more such as using queries to get specific document(s) from a collection. Then you can loop through all of them in Unreal.
