Match a date in subcollection to current date

Troubleshooting

I have a subcollection with a date field (stored in DateTime), and an int field.

I would like to display the int of the document that has a matching date to the current date.

This proved harder than expected (or I'm missing something super easy).

How would the pros go about this? Thanks for the help 🙂

What have you tried so far?

- I tried matching the date directly, but flutter can't compare two datetimes.
- I tried converting the date to a string, and creating a custom action to turn the current date to a yyy-mm-dd string on page load. However, the db query to fetch the correct document executes before the page load action, and it fails.

Did you check FlutterFlow's Documentation for this topic?
