Listening to changes

Listening to changes

Now, all applications are stored on applications collection on Firestore

We will listen to the changes of the STATUS field on all applications' documents

To do this, we use Trigger feature of Firebase

Trigger flow

STATUS of an applications' document changes

Get clientId of the document

Get get client document from clientId

Get get phoneNumber of the client

Firebase Trigger listens -> start our code

With phoneNumber of the client, we send the SMS:

"Your loan application's status has changed from X to Y"

X: the previous status of the application

Y: the updated status of the application
