I am doing similar thing using AngularFirestore injectable, You can give it a try like below

import { AngularFirestore } from "@angular/fire/firestore";

 constructor(private afs: AngularFirestore) {
  }   
 async  saveCampaign(campaignFields: Campaign) {
   let id = this.afs.createId();
   campaignFields.compainId = id;
    await this.afs.collection('mail_campaign').doc(id).set(campaignFields);
  }
