Thanks for the report @danielgorka
I currently don't have windows machine to verify this, but are you running it on desktop or on mobile using windows machine ?

[danielgorka]

I'm running on desktop.
On mobile everything works fine.

[darshankawar]

Thanks for the update. My colleague was able to replicate this on his Windows machine wherein it gave below results:

flutter: token info: null

        print('token info: ${token?.authTime}');
        print('token info: ${token?.claims}');
        print('token info: ${token?.expirationTime}');
        print('token info: ${token?.issuedAtTime}');

Hi @danielgorka, this is a missing feature from the native C++ SDK. I'll report that to the internal team.

[danielgorka]

Thank you for your quick attention to this. Looking forward to the update.

+1 for this issue.
As AppCheck and Callable Cloud Functions are not fully supported on all plattforms yet, I built a cloud function which accepts an authToken in the request, but this doesn't work out on Windows because of this issue. So I would also look forward to a fix 👍
Thank you.

Can't remember where i saw this but as a temporary fix until this is patched you can decode the token using https://pub.dev/packages/jwt_decoder and extract the claims

claimsMap = JwtDecoder.decode(
          (await getCurrentUser().getIdTokenResult()).toString());
