I am having difficulties with setting up the Firebase security rules by taking the value of another node and comparing it with auth.uid



My structure is as follows:



/$environment
/$environment/data/$client_id
/$environment/users/$uid/client_id


I would like to make sure that the authenticated user with auth.uid can only view the data at $client_id if $uid/client_id is equivalent.



I tried the following but in the simulator it says access denied:



{
/* Visit https://firebase.google.com/docs/database/security to learn more about security rules. */
"rules": {
".write": false,
"$environment": {

/* Data */
"data": {
"$client_id": {
".read": "$client_id === root.child($environment+'/users/'+auth.uid+'/client_id').val()"
}
},

/* Account settings */
"users": {
"$uid": {
".read": "$uid === auth.uid"
}
}

/* --------------------------------*/
/* end environment, rules and json */
}
}
}

  • You're missing a / before users in root.child($environment+'users/'....

  • Can you update your question to include the actual (relevant) JSON (as text, no screenshots). You can get this by clicking the "Export JSON" link in the overflow menu (⠇) on your Firebase Database console. Also please provide the code of a read operation that is failing against that JSON/rules. Also: since you're testing in the simulator, a screenshot containing the relevant details would also go a long way.
