Meet the Firestore Emulator Requests Monitor
Blog post from Firebase
Firebase’s Firestore Emulator Requests Monitor, available in the Emulator UI with the latest Firebase CLI, provides a real-time view of client requests made to a local Firestore Emulator across platforms. Its Requests view records operations such as document creation and retains recent activity, showing whether Firebase Security Rules allowed, denied, or errored on each request. Developers can inspect individual requests to view a snapshot of the applicable rules, highlighted evaluation results, request metadata, existing and proposed document data, and other fields useful for diagnosing or refining rule conditions. Rules must be edited in the local firebase.rules file, after which the CLI automatically updates the emulator and subsequent requests display new evaluation results. Rather than relying on simulated requests, the tool encourages developers to exercise actual app requests, including queries, while testing locally. The monitor excludes Admin SDK requests and does not display dependent document reads caused by rules functions such as get() or exists(), and emulator performance or cost behavior should not be treated as representative of production.
