Call a function

Creating and updating a function requires:

An admin or server key. See Keys and Permissions for details.
The privilege to create/update a function, granted in an Attribute-based access control (ABAC) role.

Problem

You need to execute a function within the current database.

Solution

Use the Call function:

Call(
  Function('create_post'),
  [ 'First Post Title', 'This is my first blog post!' ],
)

{
  ref: Ref(Collection("posts"), "302044131605086720"),
  ts: 1624310580730000,
  data: { title: 'First Post Title', body: 'This is my first blog post!' }
}
