Amplify.configure() incorrectly throws JSON parsing validation error on valid JSON string. Improve error login on Amplify.configure() about amplify-flutter HOT 4 CLOSED

Hey @sisygoboom,

there are two types of Amplify configuration files... I encountered the same issue while working with Amplify Gen2 and flutter. What helped me was adding:
--outputs-version 0
to my create command.

Complete Command:
npx ampx sandbox --outputs-format dart --outputs-out-dir lib --outputs-version 0

Source:

when using Amplify Gen 2 with Flutter, you must downgrade the generated client configuration file (amplify_outputs.dart) with [--outputs-version 0]

Hope that helps. :-)

Hi @printSamuel, I have been using that command for weeks now and it worked fine until recently. not using --outputs-version 0 creates a completely different file named amplify_output.dart rather than apmlifyconfiguration.dart

@sisygoboom Sorry that you are facing this issue. We will look into this and get back to you when we have updates.

Based on the provided amplifyconfiguration.dart the "OAuth" configuration is missing the "AppClientId" which is a required field. there is an open issue for this aws-amplify/amplify-backend#1551
We also have an open issue for improving error messages of Amplify.configure() API #4922 so I marked this issue as duplicate of #4922
thanks for opening this issue and please feel free to open a new issue if you faced any other problem.
