Im building an recipe app for the social media of my mother. i already have the functionality for the users, when a user gets created an empty array gets initiated at the database named favoriteRecipes, which stores the id of his favorite recipes to show in a view. This is my AuthViewModel which is relevant for the user stuff: import Firebase import FirebaseAuth import FirebaseFirestore protocol AuthenticationFormProtocol { var formIsValid: Bool { get } } @MainActor class AuthViewModel : ObservableObject { @Published var userSession: FirebaseAuth.User? @Published var currentUser: User? @Published var currentUserId: String? init() { self.userSession = Auth.auth().currentUser Task { await fetchUser() } } func signIn(withEmail email: String, password: String) async throws { do { let result = try await Auth.auth().signIn(withEmail: email, password: password) self.userSession = result.user await fetchUser() // fetch user sonst profileview blank } catch { print("DEBUG: Failed to log in with error \(error.localizedDescription)") } } func createUser(withEmail email: String, password: String, fullName: String) async throws { do { let result = try await Auth.auth().createUser(withEmail: email, password: password) self.userSession = result.user let user = User(id: result.user.uid, fullName: fullName, email: email) let encodedUser = try Firestore.Encoder().encode(user) try await Firestore.firestore().collection("users").document(result.user.uid).setData(encodedUser) await fetchUser() } catch { print("Debug: Failed to create user with error \(error.localizedDescription)") } } func signOut() { do { try Auth.auth().signOut() // sign out user on backend self.userSession = nil // wipe out user session and take back to login screen self.currentUser = nil // wipe out current user data model } catch { print("DEBUG: Failed to sign out with error \(error.localizedDescription)") } } func deleteAcocount() { let user = Auth.auth().currentUser user?.delete { error in if let error = error { print("DEBUG: Error deleting user: \(error.localizedDescription)") } else { self.userSession = nil self.currentUser = nil } } } func fetchUser() async { guard let uid = Auth.auth().currentUser?.uid else { return } currentUserId = uid let userRef = Firestore.firestore().collection("users").document(uid) do { let snapshot = try await userRef.getDocument() if snapshot.exists { self.currentUser = try? snapshot.data(as: User.self) print("DEBUG: current user is \(String(describing: self.currentUser))") } else { // Benutzer existiert nicht mehr in Firebase, daher setzen wir die userSession auf nil self.userSession = nil self.currentUser = nil } } catch { print("DEBUG: Fehler beim Laden des Benutzers: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } } This is the code to fetch the favorite recipes, i use the id of the user to access the collection and get the favoriteRecipes out of the array: import SwiftUI @MainActor class FavoriteRecipeViewModel: ObservableObject { @Published var favoriteRecipes: [Recipe] = [] @EnvironmentObject var viewModel: AuthViewModel private var db = Firestore.firestore() init() { Task { await fetchFavoriteRecipes() } } func fetchFavoriteRecipes() async{ let userRef = db.collection("users").document(viewModel.userSession?.uid ?? "") do { let snapshot = try await userRef.collection("favoriteRecipes").getDocuments() let favoriteIDs = snapshot.documents.map { $0.documentID } let favoriteRecipes = try await fetchRecipes(recipeIDs: favoriteIDs) } catch { print("DEBUG: Failed to load favorite recipes for user: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } func fetchRecipes(recipeIDs: [String]) async throws -> [Recipe] { var recipes: [Recipe] = [] for id in recipeIDs { let snapshot = try await db.collection("recipes").document(id).getDocument() if let recipe = try? snapshot.data(as: Recipe.self) { recipes.append(recipe) } } return recipes } } Now the Problem occurs at the build of the project, i get the error SwiftUICore/EnvironmentObject.swift:92: Fatal error: No ObservableObject of type AuthViewModel found. A View.environmentObject(_:) for AuthViewModel may be missing as an ancestor of this view. I already passed the ViewModel instances as EnvironmentObject in the App Struct. import SwiftUI import FirebaseCore class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate { func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -> Bool { FirebaseApp.configure() return true } } @main struct NimetAndSonApp: App { @StateObject var viewModel = AuthViewModel() @StateObject var recipeViewModel = RecipeViewModel() @StateObject var favoriteRecipeViewModel = FavoriteRecipeViewModel() @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(AppDelegate.self) var delegate var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() .environmentObject(viewModel) .environmentObject(recipeViewModel) .environmentObject(favoriteRecipeViewModel) } } }
