PrtSc

my code

Future saveUserCart(User currentUser) async
{
  List<String> IDs = [];

  Future getDocs() async {
    QuerySnapshot querySnapshot = await FirebaseFirestore.instance
        .collection('users')
        .doc(currentUser.uid)
        .collection("userCart").get();
    for (int i = 0; i < querySnapshot.docs.length; i++) {

      var itemIDs = querySnapshot.docs[i];

      print(itemIDs.id);

      IDs = [itemIDs.id];
    }
    print(IDs);
  }
  getDocs();

    Try IDs.add(itemIDs.id); instead of IDs=[itemIDs.id];

    Instead of adding the code in question is creating a new list and assigning it to the last id. When we use add method we can get all ids from the documents.

    Future saveUserCart(User currentUser) async
{
  List<String> IDs = [];

  Future getDocs() async {
    QuerySnapshot querySnapshot = await FirebaseFirestore.instance
        .collection('users')
        .doc(currentUser.uid)
        .collection("userCart").get();
    for (int i = 0; i < querySnapshot.docs.length; i++) {

      var itemIDs = querySnapshot.docs[i];

      print(itemIDs.id);

      IDs.add(itemIDs.id);
    }
    print(IDs);
  }
  getDocs();
}

    It’s just Example,

    you can use base on your requirements. For gettings "ID" you don’t need to use for loop, use "map" functions.

     var data = [{'key':'abc', 'id':1},{ 'key': 'xyz', 'id': 2}];
 var mapData = data.map((res) => res['id']);
 print("mapData => ${mapData.toList()}");

    Expected Output,

    mapData => [1, 2]

    Maybe, it will help you.
