[SOLVED] Exception when retrieving current user
Hello, What are the probable causes for this exception when I run the getCurrentUser:
TypeScript
Future<User> getCurrentUser() async =>
Account(_client).get().then((value) => value);```
Exception```Unhandled Exception: type 'Null' is not a subtype of type 'List<dynamic>'```
TL;DR
The user is experiencing an exception when trying to retrieve the current user in Flutter. The solution is to downgrade the flutter plugin to version 9.0.0. The Appwrite flutter SDK version 11 is meant for Appwrite 1.4, so it needs to be downgraded. The exception message suggests that there is a type error, specifically 'Null' not being a subtype of 'List<dynamic>'. TypeScript
#0 new User.fromMap (package:appwrite/src/models/user.dart:87:18)
#1 Account.get (package:appwrite/services/account.dart:23:24)
<asynchronous suspension>```
What version of Appwrite are you on and what version of the Appwrite flutter sdk are you using?
Hello Steve,
appwrite: ^11.0.0 => flutter Appwrite console version 1.3.7
Version 11 of the Appwrite flutter sdk is meant for Appwrite 1.4. Please downgrade, checking the readme to see what version you should use
I just downgraded the flutter plugin to 9.0.0 and it worked! That's the workaround I guess?
Perfect. Thank you!
