Switch User

VwoFlutter.setUserId switches identity when the logged-in user changes in the same app session. Call it only after Wingify Insights initialization is complete.

Signature

static Future<bool> setUserId(String userId)

Parameters

• userId — Non-blank string. Blank values return false.

Returns

Future<bool>

• true — User switch and configuration refresh succeeded.
• false — Request rejected (blank userId, SDK not initialized) or refresh failed.

Behavior

• Stops the current recording/session for the previous user.
• Updates client identity and refreshes server configuration for the new userId.
• If recording was active before the switch, it automatically resumes after configuration refresh completes. If recording was stopped, it remains stopped.

Example

import 'package:vwo_insights_flutter_sdk/vwo_insights_flutter_sdk.dart';

Future<void> handleLogin(String userId) async {
  final success = await VwoFlutter.setUserId(userId);
  
  if (success) {
    // User switch complete
    print('User ID updated to: $userId');
  } else {
    // Handle failure
    print('Failed to update user ID');
  }
}

Common Use Case

// After user authentication
final user = await authenticateUser(email, password);
if (user != null) {
  await VwoFlutter.setUserId(user.id);
  // Recording resumes automatically if it was active before
}
