Passing a document reference from a ListView to a Details page is the standard, most efficient way to handle "Read" operations in FlutterFlow when using Firebase. Instead of passing every single field (like name, price, etc.) individually, you pass a single Document Reference (ID), and the details page uses that reference to fetch the latest data.
Here is exactly how to set this up for your courses collection.
Before the list page can send the data, the details page needs a "mailbox" to receive it.
courseRefDoc ReferencecoursesNow that the details page has the reference, it needs to use it to read the course fields (course, description, hours, price).
Document from ReferencecoursescourseRef.💡 Now, any widget inside this page can access the specific course's fields directly from this document query.
Next, configure the trigger on your main list page so it actually sends the reference when a user taps a course.
ListView (which should already be querying the courses collection).Container, ListTile, or Card) inside the ListView.Maps TocourseRef parameter. Click Pass.id).The pipeline is complete. The final step is binding your UI text elements on the details page to the Firebase data.
Text widget meant for the course title.course field.description.hours (format as a number or string as needed).price (you can use FlutterFlow's Number Format options here to display it automatically as currency, e.g., $10.00).
[ List Page: ListView Query ]
│
(User Taps Card) ──> Action: Navigate To (Passes course Document Reference)
│
▼
[ Details Page: Receives courseRef Parameter ]
│
└──> Document from Reference Query ──> Displays fields (course, price, etc.)
This workflow ensures that if a course's price or description changes in your Firebase database while the user is navigating, the details page will always show the most up-to-date information.
