db changes made directly in Firebase not recognized by FlutterFlow

Database & APIs

I have a set of FS documents that I access in my app. One of the fields is an ImagePath, which is defined in the data type. Currently all the documents don't have this ImagePath set. I went into the FS web interface to add the ImagePath to some of the documents. When I ran my app, it did not recognize that the image path was set in any of the documents.

I then added the image path using the "Manage Content" tool within FlutterFlow. The ones added this way were recognized by my app.

My question is... why didn't FF recognize the db changes I made directly in Firebase, and is there a process I need to follow or setting which will make this work? Thanks!

What have you tried so far?

I made the change to my documents both through FF interface and directly in Firebase.

Did you check FlutterFlow's Documentation for this topic?
