Build fails when creating/updating document with enums

[MartinLockheart]

Can we access your project?

• I give permission for members of the FlutterFlow team to access and test my project for the sole purpose of investigating this issue.

Current Behavior

Today, I adjusted a "Create Document" action to set the value of a field ("roles") which contains a list of enums (userType). The value is set from a list of userType enums in an app state variable.

After adjusting the action to set the value of that field, the build fails and I receive the error message in the screenshot. When I remove that field from my create document action, the build completes.

Adding/removing that field from the action is the only thing changed between a successful build and a failing one.

As a side note, I was getting this same error the other day when I tried to pass an enum as a notification parameter. I thought I was just doing something that notifications couldn't handle, but this suggests a larger issue (and I need to be able to update this field), so I'm reporting it here.

Expected Behavior

I should be able to set the value of a list of enums without running into errors.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new enum
2. Add field with list of enums to a Firebase collection
3. Add app state variable with list of enums
4. Create a new page
5. Add a button to the page
6. Add a "creation document" action to the button and set the field with the list of enums from the app state variable with the list of enums

Additional Information

I'm trying to push out an app update today, but after the Flutterflow update, it looks like that will be delayed.

Hello!

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I’ve confirmed the issue and will pass it along to our engineering team for further review. We appreciate your patience!

[MartinLockheart]

Just incase it helps, I got this error while attempting to load a page with a Firebase query that uses enums.

I have a critical bugfix that needs to be pushed out for this app, but I can't push it with more broken features. Do you have an ETA on this?

[MartinLockheart]

If a fix isn't going to be available soon, is there a way I can revert back to a previous version of Flutterflow, or a workaround I can use?

@Alezanello
I will add to the problem, as I consider it quite serious. A large number of project functions have been broken after the last update. Errors are related to enumerations. Not only writing, but also reading/filtering causes similar errors.

Example of an error when filtering from firebase by Enum was added:

 - 'OrderState' is from 'package:flexifind_9vsxj3/backend/schema/enums/enums.dart' ('dependencies/flexifind_9vsxj3/lib/backend/schema/enums/enums.dart').
Try using an explicit extension application of the wanted extension or hiding unwanted extensions from scope.
      stream: queryVendorOrdersRecord(parent: FFAppState().vendor.vendor,queryBuilder: (vendorOrdersRecord) => vendorOrdersRecord.where('orderGlobalStatus', isEqualTo: _model.filterBarModel.isSelectedOrderGlobalStatus?.serialize(), isNull: (_model.filterBarModel.isSelectedOrderGlobalStatus?.serialize()) == null,).where('orderState', isEqualTo: _model.filterBarModel.isSelectedOrderState?.serialize(), isNull: (_model.filterBarModel.isSelectedOrderState?.serialize()) == null,).orderBy('createTime', descending: true),),
                                                                                          ^^^^^^^^^

    String serialize() => name;
           ^^^^^^^^^
