I have a Firebase Collection that keeps track of a user's message threads by storing objects called MessageThreads as documents. Here are that object's class/constructors:

public class MessageThread {

    private String partnerName;

    private String partnerID;

    private String threadID;

    private Message lastMessage;

    private boolean notificationsOn;





    public MessageThread() {



    }





    public MessageThread(String partnerName, String partnerID, String threadID, boolean notificationsOn) {

        this.partnerName = partnerName;

        this.partnerID = partnerID;

        this.threadID = threadID;

        this.notificationsOn = notificationsOn;

    }





    public MessageThread(String partnerName, String partnerID, String threadID, Message lastMessage, boolean notificationsOn) {

        this.partnerName = partnerName;

        this.partnerID = partnerID;

        this.threadID = threadID;

        this.lastMessage = lastMessage;

        this.notificationsOn = notificationsOn;

    }



    public String getPartnerID() {

        return partnerID;

    }



    public void setPartnerID(String partnerID) {

        this.partnerID = partnerID;

    }



    public String getThreadID() {

        return threadID;

    }



    public void setThreadID(String threadID) {

        this.threadID = threadID;

    }



    public boolean areNotificationsOn() {

        return notificationsOn;

    }



    public void setNotificationsOn(boolean notificationsOn) {

        this.notificationsOn = notificationsOn;

    }



    public String getPartnerName() {

        return partnerName;

    }



    public void setPartnerName(String user1) {

        this.partnerName = user1;

    }





    public Message getLastMessage() {

        return lastMessage;

    }



    public void setLastMessage(Message lastMessage) {

        this.lastMessage = lastMessage;

    }



}

When the messaging activity is launched for a new thread, the notificationsOn boolean is set to true and a Thread object is created using the second (4 argument) constructor:

 private void getSetThreadDetails(final String convoID) {



        final DocumentReference threadReference = mFirestore.collection("users").document(mSignedInUserID).collection("threads").document(convoID);





        threadReference.get().addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<DocumentSnapshot>() {

            @Override

            public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<DocumentSnapshot> task) {

                if (task.isSuccessful()) {

                    DocumentSnapshot snapshot = task.getResult();



                    if (!snapshot.exists()) {

                        notificationsOn = true;

                        Log.d(TAG,"notifications when thread details set: " +String.valueOf(notificationsOn));

                        MessageThread newMessageThread = new MessageThread(mPartnerName, mPartnerID, convoID, notificationsOn);

                        threadReference.set(newMessageThread);



                    }







                }

            }

        });





    }

However, in Firebase, the stored MessageThread is not showing an entry for notificationsOn even as it is set to true right before being sent to Firebase. Where does it go?

You have a setter for notificationsOn, but you don't have a getter. Firestore (by way of JavaBean convention) needs to find the method by its correct name:

public boolean getNotificationsOn() {

    return this.notificationsOn;

}
