The getter 'docs' isn't defined for the type 'Future<QuerySnapshot> Firestore/Flutter

I'm having a little trouble with returning data into _allResults list. I do get an error data.docs as it shows that "The getter 'docs' isn't defined for the type 'Future'". Maybe someone have any clue what could be the reason for it?

Thank you in advance!

Code snippet

getItemStreamSnapshots() async {
var data = FirebaseFirestore.instance
    .collection('Books')
    .get();
setState(() {
  _allResults = data.docs;
});
searchResultsList();
return "complete";
}

The method get you are calling is:

Future<QuerySnapshot> get([GetOptions options])

It returns a Future, not a QuerySnapshot. You can await for the result since your method is async:

final data = await FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('Books').get();
