[ANDROID] onChannelInvited parameter channel has some of it's properties like 'uniqueName, 'friendlyName' etc empty. Confirmed this as a bug. about react-native-twilio-chat HOT 3 OPEN

@Kabangi I have noticed a similar issue. I tried to dig in the code a bit. I have found out that in Client.js file there are a few places where we try to extract some values from Constants. Constants have those attributes however they are wrapped inside a attribute called default. That is why it not able to get those values.

@shubhangi-asgola that's because they're ES6 exports.. you need to import them or require them with .default.

Availability of uniqueName, friendlyName and attributes etc is more related to Channel Synchronisation Status. The status has to be at least Metadata to make the friendlyName available.

I also run into similar issue: one user (A) is added by another user (B) into a newly created channel. The client.onChannelAdded listener is called on user A, but metadata of the channel is not available, because the channel Synchronisation status is low (e.g. None, Identifier).

My workaround is to run the following code in a timeout block:

setTimeout(() => {
  client.getChannel(sid).then(channel => {
    // this should give me more information of the channel 
  });
}, 3000);
