I did fix the typo in the changelog here:
Loic
Wed, 30 Aug 2023 23:20:39 UTCUpdate extension version
Jason
Wed, 30 Aug 2023 23:21:44 UTCLooks like the changelogs in the Firebase UI don't get updated after submitting the version to the extension hub

Wed, 06 Sep 2023 16:09:23 UTCJason Hi Jason, I have a problem with my collection schema. I have a class as below:
Loic
Wed, 06 Sep 2023 16:09:33 UTC```class Temperatures { String brokerId; List<PickedProduct> pickedProduct; Temperatures({ required this.brokerId, required this.pickedProduct, }); } class PickedProduct { String uniqueTicker; int brokerRetailPrice; String brokerCurrency; String brokerDescription; bool showOriginalPictures; bool showGenericPictureFirst; PickedProduct({ required this.uniqueTicker, required this.brokerRetailPrice, required this.brokerCurrency, required this.brokerDescription, required this.showOriginalPictures, required this.showGenericPictureFirst, }); }```
Loic
Wed, 06 Sep 2023 16:09:44 UTCThat gives a Json like this:
Loic
Wed, 06 Sep 2023 16:09:46 UTC```{ "brokerId": "abc", "pickedProduct": [ { "uniqueTicker" : "abc", "brokerRetailPrice" : 100, "brokerCurrency" : "abc", "brokerDescription" : "abc", "showOriginalPictures" : true, "showGenericPictureFirst" : true } ] }```

Wed, 06 Sep 2023 16:10:28 UTCHow to store the List<pickedProduct> in the collection schema?
Loic
Wed, 06 Sep 2023 16:10:59 UTCI have tried the Object[] but it doesn't seem to be the good solution
Jason
Wed, 06 Sep 2023 16:55:24 UTC`object[]` would indeed be the way to store that object, since it's an array of objects. Could you elaborate on why it's not a good solution?

Wed, 30 Aug 2023 23:18:03 UTCJason Hi Jason, In Firesbase Extension, the doc says to set "Yes" in both cases, is this normal? ```Adds a new parameter that controls whether a nested Firestore document is flattened by the extension, or sent as is to Typesense. If you are running Typesense Server v0.23.1 or below, set "Flatten Nested Documents" to "Yes" (since indexing nested fields is not supported in these versions). If you are running Typesense Server v0.24 or above, set "Flatten Nested Documents" to "Yes" (since indexing nested fields is natively supported in Typesense in these versions).```
