Writing to Firestore Database Results in Firestore net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT Error

I am trying to write to my firestore database and I get a net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT. I have a user save info from a form and writing it to a database.

Here is the request:

// react app

  const referenceDescriptionTextArea = useRef();
  const proposalsCollectionReference = collection(db, "proposals");

  const handleProposalSubmit = async (event) => {
    event.preventDefault();

    var data = {
      author: getCurrentUser().uid,
      timestamp: Timestamp.now(),
      tokenid: tokenid,
      type: "bio",
      description: referenceDescriptionTextArea.current.value,
    };

    addDoc(proposalsCollectionReference, data).then(
      (docRef) => {
        console.log(docRef.id); //saf89hnasHJADH9
        closeModal();
      },
      (err) => {
        console.log(err);
      }
    );
  };

Console Error after trying to submit a proposal:

channelrequest.js:1086          POST https://firestore.googleapis.com/google.firestore.v1.Firestore/Write/channel?VER=8&database=projects%2FREDACTED%2Fdatabases%2F(default)&gsessionid=sdaf7uOt-NfCFKX32b-Mw3sJBli_ssdsdfkaNw&SID=Q-mrJ98YFSsadflZRPA&RID=20557&TYPE=terminate&zx=pyjwqxvmw7j9 net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT

Some things I have tried are the following :

  1. Double checked the firestore rules to make sure it is value. In this case I only want authenticated users to write to the doc like so. Error persists.
    match /proposals/{proposal} {
        allow read, write: if request.auth != null;
    }
  1. I was convinced this was a firestore rule so I changed the firestore rule to allow anyone to write to it (on my local deployment). Error persists.
    match /proposals/{proposal} {
        allow read, write: if true; // on local deployment but not working
    }
  1. Some users state this error is due to Adblockers. To check against this I opened up a new instance of Chrome without extensions but I get the same results. I tried other browsers and ran into similar issues. Error persists.
Solution

  • I found out it was Brave Shield on Brave. I did more research and heres what I gathered.
