11:08 PMAlthough I'm not yet able to write docs to a collection - using the Admin API Key from the downloaded keys file within a Firebase Function, I can create a client, but I cannot upsert docs - the
upsert method doesn't exist on the documents() object. In the debugging there is a class SearchOnlyDocuments - is this a collection configuration issue/parameter or this related to the APIKey? (even though I'm using the Admin API Key)
