[SOLVED] How can i get a Username?

TypeScript

Account account = Account(db());  // assuming db() is an instance of Client?
const user = account.get('[USER-ID]');

const user_name = user.name;

TL;DR

User is trying to retrieve the username using the `get()` method from the `Account` class in the Appwrite SDK. Initially, the code only printed `__instance of response__`. They are using `then` and `catchError` for handling the response and error, respectively. Another user suggests using `async-await` instead of `then`. User also mentions that they are on Flutter and are using Appwrite version 8.1.0. The solution provided is to use `async-await` and assign the result of `account.get()` to a variable. Then, access the `name` property of the response to

Ah I'm sorry

I've been so used to the web sdk i forgot you're on flutter lol

https://appwrite.io/docs/client/account?sdk=flutter-default#accountGet Just have a look at this!

ok. so i have to use this?

TypeScript

      Future result = account.get();

      result.then((response) {
        print(response);
      }).catchError((error) {
        print(error.response);
      });```

but how can i get the username?

result.name

i dont think so, because this is an unresolved reference, but something like that (this example doesnt work)

TypeScript

Future result = account.get();

  result.then((response) {
    return response["name"];
  }).catchError((error) {
    print(error.response);
  });```

what version of appwrite are you using?

and what's your sdk version?

TypeScript

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter


  cupertino_icons: ^1.0.2
  appwrite: ^8.1.0```

and what's the appwrite version?

cloud or self hosted?

atm cloud, but in production it should be the second

can you try using async-await instead of then?

same error

what's the exact error?

can you show your full code snippet?

nvm no error,

so i have this, but this just prints instance of response

TypeScript

dynamic user() {
  Account account = Account(db());
  Future result = account.get();

  result.then((response) {
    print(response);
  }).catchError((error) {
    print(error.response);
  });
}```

ah i have fixed it

but thank you anyway!
