enter image description hereHow to get the last element in a nested database in firebase.
This is my db



In this there are several ids and for each id under the bot's msg i want the last message which in this case will be



I am fine.Thank You....


I know the brute approach but it will take a lot of time.



Here is my code :



    return ref.child(user).once('value').then((snapshot) => {
var i = 0;
snapshot.forEach((snap) => {
console.log(snap.child('bot').child('msg').msg);
snap.child('bot').child('msg')
.forEach((openTicketSnapshot) => {
var val = openTicketSnapshot.val();
val.forEach((text) => {
userMsg2.push({
'who': 'User',
'msg': text.msg,
'time': text.timestamp
});

})

});

//Here i will access the last index of userMsg




var data1 = {
"data": "found"
};
res.json(data1);
// ...
return data1;
})


How to do this efficiently?

  • yes I thought so.., console.log(snapshot) should contain all data inside user and contain all the ids you can then do snap.child('bot').child('msg').limitToLast(1) .forEach((openTicketSnapshot) => { to get the last one
