How To Add Timestamp In Firebase Cloud Functions

I am trying to add Timestamp in Firestore document on Firebase Cloud functions.

I had tried firestore.Timestamp.fromDate(new Date()), but its not working.

const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const admin = require('firebase-admin');
const firestore = admin.firestore();
const createdAt = firestore.Timestamp.fromDate(new Date());
console.log(createdAt);

Value of createdAt should return the server timestamp, but its throwing error.

Instead of this:

const firestore = admin.firestore();
const createdAt = firestore.Timestamp.fromDate(new Date());

Try this:

const firestore = admin.firestore;
const createdAt = firestore.Timestamp.fromDate(new Date());

Might be hard to spot the difference. So here is the explanation: You are calling the function "firestore()" of the object "admin" instead of accessing the property "firestore" of the object "admin" which has the property "Timestamp" you are looking for.
