Description:

ARRAY_AGG_DISTINCT

Arithmetic Functions

All arithmetic functions in Firestore have the following behaviors:

  • Evaluates to NULL if any of the input parameters is NULL.
  • Evaluates to NaN if any of the arguments is NaN.
  • Generates an error if an overflow or underflow occurs.

Additionally, when an arithmetic function takes multiple numeric arguments of different types (for example: add(5.0, 6)), Firestore implicitly converts arguments to the widest input type. If only INT32 inputs are provided, the return type will be INT64.

ROUND

Syntax:

round[N <: INT32 | INT64 | FLOAT64 | DECIMAL128](number: N, places: INT64) -> N

Description:

Rounds places digits off a number. Rounds digits from the right of the decimal point if places is positive, and to the left of the decimal point if it is negative.

  • If only number is provided, rounds to the nearest whole value.
  • Rounds away from zero in halfway cases.
  • An error is thrown if rounding with a negative places value results in overflow.

Examples:

number places round(number, places)
15.5 0 16.0

Description:

Returns the sum of all NUMERIC values in an ARRAY.

  • Non-numeric values in the array are ignored.
  • If any numeric value in the array is NaN, the function returns NaN.
  • The return type is determined by the widest numeric type in the array: INT64 < FLOAT64.
  • If 64-bit integer overflow occurs before any floating point value is summed, an error is returned. If floating point values are summed, overflow will result in +/- infinity.
  • If the array contains no numeric values at all, the function returns NULL.

Examples:

array sum(array)
[1, 2, 3] 6L
[1L, 2L, 3L] 6L
[2000000000, 2000000000] 4000000000L

JOIN

Syntax:

join[T <: STRING | BYTES](array: ARRAY<T>, delimiter: T) -> STRING
join[T <: STRING | BYTES](array: ARRAY<T>, delimiter: T, null_text: T) -> STRING

Description:

Returns a concatenation of the elements in array as a STRING. The array can be of STRING or BYTES data types.

  • All elements in array, delimiter, and null_text must be of the same type; they must all be STRINGs or all be BYTES.
  • If null_text is provided, any NULL values in array are replaced with null_text.
  • If null_text is not provided, NULL values in array are omitted from the result.

Examples:

When null_text is not provided:

array delimiter join(array, delimiter)
["a", "b", "c"] "," "a,b,c"
["a", null, "c"] "," "a,c"
[b'a', b'b', b'c'] b',' b'a,b,c'
["a", b'c'] "," error
["a", "c"] b',' error
[b'a', b'c'] "," error

When null_text is provided:

array delimiter null_text join(array, delimiter, null_text)
["a", null, "c"] "," "MISSING" "a,MISSING,c"
[b'a', null, b'c'] b',' b'NULL' b'a,NULL,c'
[null, "b", null] "," "MISSING" "MISSING,b,MISSING"

TO_UPPER

Syntax:

to_upper[T <: STRING | BYTES](value: T) -> T

SUBSTRING

Syntax:

substring[T <: STRING | BYTES](input: T, position: INT64) -> T
substring[T <: STRING | BYTES](input: T, position: INT64, length: INT64) -> T

Description:

Returns a substring of input starting at position (zero-based index) and including up to length entries. If no length is provided, returns the substring from position to the end of the input.

  • If input is a STRING value, position and length are measured in unicode code points. If it is a BYTES value, they are measured in bytes.

  • If position is greater than the length of the input, an empty substring is returned. If position plus length is greater than the length of input, the substring is truncated to the end of input.

  • If position is negative, the position is taken from the end of the input. If the negative position is greater than the size of the input, the position is set to zero. length must be non-negative.

Examples:

When length is not provided:

input position substring(input, position)
"abc" 0 "abc"
"abc" 1 "bc"
"abc" 3 ""
"abc" -1 "c"
b"abc" 1 b"bc"

When length is provided:

input position length substring(input, position, length)
"abc" 0 1 "a"
"abc" 1 2 "bc"
"abc" -1 1 "c"
b"abc" 0 1 b"a"

SPLIT

Syntax:

split(input: STRING) -> ARRAY<STRING>
split[T <: STRING | BYTES](input: T, delimiter: T) -> ARRAY<T>

Description:

Splits a STRING or BYTES value, using a delimiter.

  • For STRING the default delimiter is the comma ,. The delimiter is treated as a single string.

  • For BYTES, you must specify a delimiter.

  • Splitting on an empty delimiter produces an array of Unicode codepoints for STRING values, and an array of BYTES for BYTES values.

  • Splitting an empty STRING returns an ARRAY with a single empty STRING.

Examples:

When delimiter is not provided:

input split(input)
"foo,bar,foo" ["foo", "bar", "foo"]
"foo" ["foo"]
",foo," ["", "foo", ""]
"" [""]
b"C120C2C4" error

When delimiter is provided:

input delimiter split(input, delimiter)
"foo bar foo" " " ["foo", "bar", "foo"]
"foo bar foo" "z" ["foo bar foo"]
"abc" "" ["a", "b", "c"]
b"C1,C2,C4" b"," [b"C1", b"C2", b"C4"]
b"ABC" b"" [b"A", b"B", b"C"]
"foo" b"C1" error

Timestamp Functions

Name Description
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP Generates a TIMESTAMP corresponding to the request time.

UNIX_MICROS_TO_TIMESTAMP Converts the number of microseconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC to a TIMESTAMP
UNIX_MILLIS_TO_TIMESTAMP Converts the number of milliseconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC to a TIMESTAMP
UNIX_SECONDS_TO_TIMESTAMP Converts the number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC to a TIMESTAMP
TIMESTAMP_ADD Adds a time interval to a TIMESTAMP
TIMESTAMP_SUB Subtracts a time interval to a TIMESTAMP
TIMESTAMP_TO_UNIX_MICROS Converts a TIMESTAMP to the number of microseconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
TIMESTAMP_TO_UNIX_MILLIS Converts a TIMESTAMP to the number of milliseconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
TIMESTAMP_TO_UNIX_SECONDS Converts a TIMESTAMP to the number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC

CURRENT_TIMESTAMP

Syntax:

current_timestamp() -> TIMESTAMP

Description:

Gets the timestamp at the beginning of request time input (interpreted as the number of microseconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC).

This is stable within a query, and will always resolve to the same value if called multiple times.

TIMESTAMP_TRUNC

Syntax:

timestamp_trunc(timestamp: TIMESTAMP, granularity: STRING[, timezone: STRING]) -> TIMESTAMP

Description:

Truncates a timestamp down to a given granularity.

The granularity argument must be a string and one of the following:

  • microsecond
  • millisecond
  • second
  • minute
  • hour
  • day
  • week
  • week([weekday])
  • month
  • quarter
  • year
  • isoyear

If the timezone argument is provided, truncation will be based on the given timezone's calendar boundaries (e.g. day truncation will truncate to midnight in the given timezone). The truncation will respect daylight savings time.

If timezone is not provided, truncation will be based on UTC calendar boundaries.

The timezone argument should be a string representation of a timezone from the tz database, for example America/New_York. A custom time offset can also be used by specifying an offset from GMT.

Examples:

timestamp granularity timezone timestamp_trunc(timestamp, granularity, timezone)
2000-01-01 10:20:30:123456 UTC "second" Not provided 2001-01-01 10:20:30 UTC

TIMESTAMP_SUB

Syntax:

timestamp_sub(timestamp: TIMESTAMP, unit: STRING, amount: INT64) -> TIMESTAMP

Description:

Subtracts an amount of unit from timestamp. The amount argument can be negative, in that case it is equivalent to TIMESTAMP_ADD.

The unit argument must be a string and one of the following:

  • microsecond
  • millisecond
  • second
  • minute
  • hour
  • day

Throws an error if the resulting timestamp does not fit within the TIMESTAMP range.

Examples:

timestamp unit amount timestamp_sub(timestamp, unit, amount)
2026-07-04 00:00:00 UTC "minute" 40L 2026-07-03 23:20:00 UTC
