Initialize user object

Whenever you initialize Insider SDK, you also initialize a new Insider user object. You can set attributes for this object and get this object with getCurrentUser method.

Insider user object represents the current user of your app. It is the main object that you can use for attribution (e.g. age, email, opt-in, etc.).

Method Signature

FlutterInsiderUser getCurrentUser()

Method Example

FlutterInsider.Instance.getCurrentUser();

The values in the method examples are sample values. While implementing these methods, you need to replace them with your own unique variables. Otherwise, the methods will not function properly, and might cause discrepancies in user unification.

Set email as user identifier

This method allows you to set the user identifier attribute of your Insider user object for data unification. With this attribute, you can unify your user data within Insider products and reach this user via different channels such as mobile app and web.

Method Signature

Future<FlutterInsiderIdentifiers> addEmail(String email) async

Method Example

FlutterInsiderIdentifiers identifiers = new FlutterInsiderIdentifiers();
identifiers.addEmail("sample@mail.com");
identifiers.addPhoneNumber("+651234567");
identifiers.addUserID("CRM-ID");
await FlutterInsider.Instance.getCurrentUser().login(identifiers);

All parameter types are required to be String.
Phone numbers are required to start with a + (plus) sign followed by a country code. The country code should start with a number between 1-9.
