Secure data in Cloud Firestore
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
Cloud Firestore offers robust access management and authentication
through different mechanisms, depending on the client libraries you use.
Mobile and web client libraries
For mobile and web client libraries, use Firebase Authentication and
Cloud Firestore Security Rules to handle serverless authentication,
authorization, and data validation. Learn how to use
Cloud Firestore Security Rules to secure your data when using
the
Android, Apple, Web, Flutter, Unity, and C++ client libraries.
Use Firebase App Check to help ensure that only your app
can access your Cloud Firestore data.
For your apps that use Cloud Storage for Firebase, use Cloud Firestore to
define conditions for access to your Cloud Storage resources in database
documents that can be
accessed by Cloud Storage Security Rules.
Server client libraries
For server client libraries, use Identity and Access Management (IAM)
to manage access to your database. Learn how
to secure your data for the Java, Python, Node.js, and Go client libraries
with IAM.
