Authentication

Create Applozic user and pass user to login() function as below:

dynamic user = {
      'applicationId': "<APPLICATION_ID>",   //Mandatory
      'userId': userId.text,                 //Mandatory
      'displayName': displayName.text,

      'authenticationTypeId': 1              //Mandatory
  };

ApplozicFlutter.login(user).then((response) {
      print("Login success : " + response)
    }).catchError((error, stack) =>
      print("Error while logging in : " + error.toString()));

Note: Please remember you have to log in once and only after you log out you must log in again. Use below code to check if the user is already logged in:

        if (isLoggedIn) {
          //The user is logged in
         } esle {
          //The user is not logged in
         }
     });

                  }

  ApplozicFlutter.updateUserDetail(user)
                        .then(
                            (value) => print("User details updated : " + value))

            'plugin': "Flutter",
