Hello I want that when creating a new document, where it says "projectId" the id of the document that is automatically generated is passed to the "projectId" field, is this is possible?

enter image description here

This is my code:

addDoc(collection(db, "projects"), {
        name: project,
        uid: currentUser,
        projectId: 'here the proyectId that i dont know how to pass it'
        
        
      })

Im using Firebase v9 Modular, Firestore and React JS

google-cloud-firestore firebase reactjs javascript

The following will do the trick:

import { collection, doc, setDoc } from "firebase/firestore"; 

// Add a new document with a generated id
const newDocRef = doc(collection(db, "projects"));

// Set the doc, using the id property of the DocumentReference
await setDoc(newDocRef, {
    name: project,
    uid: currentUser,
    projectId: newDocRef.id
  }
);
