Get all files from Firebase Storage

Question

I was able to successfully store files in the firebase storage, but now I am having a problem. I am storing multiple images in a directory / folder but I am only able to retrieve one? How do I iterate through all files in a folder? I know you can do this with FirebaseDatabase snapshots by using an enhanced for loop, but this is not possible for FirebaseStorage, no?

FirebaseStorage.getInstance().getReference().child(listing.authorUid).child(listing.adId).getDownloadUrl().addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Uri>() {
       @Override
           public void onSuccess(Uri uri) {
              //for(Uri child : uri.getChildren()) ???
           }
       });

Bad news: no way. That's one of the reasons why I gave up with Firebase. — Fabio Marzocca, May 17 '19 at 14:52

Use listall option with firebase storage reference. This will return the list of all files as items.

root.child('images/uid').listAll()

Will return the file as an item.
