how do I search the groups the user participates in Firebase?

Question

I have an android app java and want to know how I do a search of the groups that a user participates...

how do Join to search only the groups that the user participates in (the Attendee table links the group and user tables)?

If you want to know what are the groups where the user Z1FZPBz9m0T1yg21DBfRgI2bGFO2 participates, you can do:

Query query = db.child("attendee").orderByChild("userUID").equalTo("Z1FZPBz9m0T1yg21DBfRgI2bGFO2");
query.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
    @Override
    public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot datasnapshot) {
        for (snap : datasnapshot) {
            String groupUID = snap.getKey();
            // Utilizar o groupID
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onCancelled(DatabaseError error) {

    }
});

Updating: To access the group object:

Query query = db.child("attendee").orderByChild("userUID").equalTo("Z1FZPBz9m0T1yg21DBfRgI2bGFO2");
query.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
    @Override
    public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot datasnapshot) {
        for (snap : datasnapshot) {
            String groupUID = snap.getKey();
            // Utilizar o groupID para achar o objeto grupo
            db.child("group").child(groupUID).addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
                @Override
                public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnap) {
                    Group group = dataSnap.getValue(Group.class)
                    //Adicionar o group à lista
                }

                @Override
                public void onCancelled(DatabaseError error) {

                }
            });
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onCancelled(DatabaseError error) {

    }
});
