Firestore-Flutter-GetX: How to get document id to update a record in Firestore

Issue

I am very new to Dart, and coding in general. I have produced this code after watching tutorials on YouTube. For the most part, I have been able to troubleshoot most of my problems on my own, yet I cannot figure out my most recent errors. I was successful to create record in firestorm but I am unable to update it because I am not able to get Doc ID.

Here is my code:-

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
    import 'package:lms_definer/controllers/profileController.dart';
    import 'package:lms_definer/controllers/textController.dart';
    import 'package:get/get.dart';
    import 'package:lms_definer/model/profileModel.dart';
    import 'package:lms_definer/constants/constants.dart';
    import 'package:cloud_firestore/cloud_firestore.dart';
    import '../helper/firestore_db.dart';
    
    
    class EditProfile extends StatelessWidget {
      const EditProfile({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
    
      @override
      Widget build(BuildContext context) {
        var _textController = ProfileEdit();
    
        return Scaffold(
            body: GetX<ProfileController>(
              init: Get.put<ProfileController>(ProfileController()),
              builder: (ProfileController profileController) {
                return Container(
                  child: ListView.builder(
                      itemCount: profileController.profiles.length,
                      itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int i) {
                        final _profileModel = profileController.profiles[i];
                        setTextEditControllerValue(_textController, _profileModel);
    
                        return SafeArea(
                          child: Container(

      static createProfile(ProfileModel profilemodel) async {
        await firebaseFirestore.collection('users').doc(auth.currentUser!.uid)
            .collection('profile')

    }}

I need doc Id to update the file. Please help. Thank you

Solution

static updateProfile(ProfileModel profilemodel, documentId ) {
        firebaseFirestore
            .collection('users')
            .doc(auth.currentUser!.uid)
            .collection('profile')
            .get()
            .then((QuerySnapshot querySnapshot) {
              final docId = queryShapchot.docs.first.id;
   
              firebaseFirestore
                .collection('users')
                .doc(auth.currentUser!.uid)
                .collection('profile')
                .doc(docId)
                .update({
                   // Add data here
                })
            });
      }

This should do the trick for you.
