Implementation

Future<List<dynamic>> getEntityData({
  required String entity,
  String? filterByField,
  String? filterValue,
}) async {
  final token = await getAccessToken();
  if (token == null) return [];

  final String url = (filterByField != null &&
          filterByField.isNotEmpty &&
          filterValue != null &&
          filterValue.isNotEmpty)
      ? "$resource/data/$entity?\$filter=$filterByField eq '$filterValue'"
      : "$resource/data/$entity";

  final response = await http.get(
    Uri.parse(url),
    headers: {
      "Authorization": "Bearer $token",
      "Content-Type": "application/json",
      "Accept": "application/json",
    },
  );

  if (response.statusCode == 200) {
    return jsonDecode(response.body)["value"] ?? [];
  } else {
    print(
        "❌ Failed to get $entity: ${response.statusCode} - ${response.body}");
    return [];
  }
