Embed Flutter SDK
Step-by-step guide to integrate the RevRag Flutter embed SDK.
| Package | embed_flutter |
| Version | 0.2.0 |
| Requires | Flutter ≥ 3.0.0 / Dart ≥ 3.0.0 |
| Covers | Voice agent, EmbedWidget, navigation-aware visibility, events, call control, and native platform setup |
Native microphone setup is required on both Android and iOS.
Skipping it is the most common source of "the mic dialog never appears" and silent voice failures. See Android Setup and iOS Setup.
Follow this guide in order the first time you integrate:
| Step | What you do | Details |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Install | Add embed_flutter to your pubspec.yaml | §1 |
| 2. Native setup | Android and iOS microphone setup — required | §1.1 · §1.2 |
| 3. Initialize | Call embedInitialize() before runApp() | §3 |
| 4. Wrap your app | Make EmbedWidget the outermost widget | §4 |
| 5. Connect navigation | Tell the SDK when the route changes, so it can show or hide the agent button | §5 |
| 6. Identify | Send USER_DATA once you have a logged-in user ID — the only required event | §6.1 |

1. Installation
Add the package to your pubspec.yaml:
dependencies:
embed_flutter: ^0.2.0Then fetch:
flutter pub get1.1 Android Setup
Open android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml and add:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />1.2 iOS Setup
Step 1 — Info.plist
Open ios/Runner/Info.plist and add:
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs microphone access for voice calls.</string>Step 2 — Podfile
Open ios/Podfile and add the PERMISSION_MICROPHONE=1 macro inside the post_install block:
post_install do |installer|
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target)
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
config.build_settings['GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS'] ||= [
'$(inherited)',
'PERMISSION_MICROPHONE=1',
]
end
end
endWithout PERMISSION_MICROPHONE=1 the system permission dialog will never appear and the permission will always be reported as denied.
After editing the Podfile, run:
cd ios && pod install && cd ..2. How the SDK Works (Mental Model)
Understanding these three concepts up front makes integration straightforward:
| Concept | Description |
|---|---|
| EmbedWidget | A full-screen overlay wrapper placed at the very top of your widget tree. It renders the floating AI agent button and manages the live voice session. |
| EmbedNavigatorObserver / EmbedRouteListener | Tells the SDK which screen the user is on so it knows whether to show the agent button. |
| enabledRoutes | A list of route names where the agent button should appear. Only routes listed here will show the agent. |
Order of operations every time:
main()
└─ embedInitialize(apiKey: …, appVersion: …) ← before runApp
└─ runApp(
EmbedWidget( ← outermost widget
enabledRoutes: ['home', 'product', 'cart'],
child: MaterialApp / Router(
navigatorObservers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()], ← required
...
),
),
)
After authentication → embedEvent(USER_DATA, ...) ← activates the agent3. Initialization
Call embedInitialize() before runApp().
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:embed_flutter/embed_flutter.dart';
void main() {
embedInitialize(
apiKey: 'your-api-key',
embedUrl: 'https://embed.revrag.ai', // optional; defaults to revrag.ai
appVersion: '2.4.1', // REQUIRED — the only app-version intake
onResult: (bool success, String? error) {
// Called after the SDK prefetches the UI config from the server.
if (!success) {
print('Embed init failed: $error');
}
},
);
runApp(const MyApp());
}App version is required and passed to embedInitialize(appVersion:) — that is
its only intake (no auto-derivation, no post-init setter). It is sent with every event.
4. Wrapping Your App with EmbedWidget
EmbedWidget must be the outermost widget — it wraps your MaterialApp / MaterialApp.router / CupertinoApp.
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
// List the routes where the agent button should appear
enabledRoutes: const ['home', 'product_list', 'product_detail', 'cart'],
child: MaterialApp(
navigatorObservers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()],
// ... rest of your app
),
);
}
}The agent button appears only on routes listed in enabledRoutes. On all other routes (e.g. splash, login, settings) it is hidden automatically.
Alternatively, to show the agent on every screen except a few:
EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
showOnAllRoutes: true,
disabledRoutes: const ['splash', 'login', 'otp'],
child: MaterialApp(
navigatorObservers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()],
),
)5. Navigator Integration
This is the most important integration step. The SDK needs to know when the route changes so it can show or hide the agent button. The approach differs slightly depending on which navigator you use.
5.1 MaterialApp with Named Routes
The simplest case — named routes declared directly in MaterialApp.routes.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:embed_flutter/embed_flutter.dart';
void main() {
embedInitialize(apiKey: 'your-api-key', appVersion: '1.0.0');
runApp(const MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
enabledRoutes: const ['product_list', 'product_detail', 'cart'],
child: MaterialApp(
// ✅ Required — tracks route changes
navigatorObservers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()],
initialRoute: '/',
routes: {
'/': (ctx) => const SplashScreen(),
'home': (ctx) => const HomeScreen(),
'product_list': (ctx) => const ProductListScreen(),
'product_detail': (ctx) => const ProductDetailScreen(),
'cart': (ctx) => const CartScreen(),
'checkout': (ctx) => const CheckoutScreen(),
},
),
);
}
}Navigating between routes:
// Push
Navigator.pushNamed(context, 'product_list');
// Push with arguments
Navigator.pushNamed(context, 'product_detail', arguments: {'id': 42});
// Replace (useful for tabs — see section 5.5)
Navigator.pushReplacementNamed(context, 'cart');EmbedNavigatorObserver intercepts every push, pop, and replace and shows or hides the agent button based on whether the new route is in enabledRoutes.
5.2 MaterialApp with onGenerateRoute
When routes carry parameters you typically use onGenerateRoute. Everything else is identical.
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
enabledRoutes: const ['welcome', 'personal_info', 'address', 'review'],
child: MaterialApp(
navigatorObservers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()], // ✅ required
home: const SplashScreen(),
onGenerateRoute: (settings) {
switch (settings.name) {
case 'welcome':
return MaterialPageRoute(
settings: settings, // ← always pass settings so the observer reads the name
builder: (_) => const WelcomeScreen(),
);
case 'personal_info':
final args = settings.arguments as Map<String, dynamic>?;
return MaterialPageRoute(
settings: settings,
builder: (_) => PersonalInfoScreen(data: args),
);
case 'address':
return MaterialPageRoute(
settings: settings,
builder: (_) => const AddressScreen(),
);
case 'review':
return MaterialPageRoute(
settings: settings,
builder: (_) => const ReviewScreen(),
);
default:
return null;
}
},
),
);
}
}Always pass settings: settings to MaterialPageRoute. Without it the route name is null and the SDK cannot determine whether to show the agent.
5.3 GoRouter
GoRouter uses the name field of each GoRoute for matching. Pass the observer in GoRouter.observers.
import 'package:go_router/go_router.dart';
import 'package:embed_flutter/embed_flutter.dart';
// ── Router definition ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
final _router = GoRouter(
initialLocation: '/splash',
// ✅ Add observer here
observers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()],
routes: [
GoRoute(
path: '/splash',
name: 'splash',
builder: (context, state) => const SplashScreen(),
),
GoRoute(
path: '/home',
name: 'home',
builder: (context, state) => const HomeScreen(),
),
GoRoute(
path: '/product/:id',
name: 'product_detail',
builder: (context, state) {
final id = state.pathParameters['id']!;
return ProductDetailScreen(id: id);
},
),
GoRoute(
path: '/cart',
name: 'cart',
builder: (context, state) => const CartScreen(),
),
GoRoute(
path: '/payment',
name: 'payment',
builder: (context, state) => const PaymentScreen(),
),
],
);
// ── main ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
void main() {
embedInitialize(apiKey: 'your-api-key', appVersion: '1.0.0');
runApp(const MyApp());
}
// ── App widget ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
// Use the `name:` field from GoRoute — not the path
enabledRoutes: const ['home', 'product_detail', 'cart', 'payment'],
child: MaterialApp.router(
routerConfig: _router,
),
);
}
}Navigating with GoRouter:
// By name
context.goNamed('cart');
// By path
context.go('/cart');
// Push (adds to stack)
context.pushNamed('product_detail', pathParameters: {'id': '42'});GoRouter with nameExtractor (path-based matching)
If you prefer to match on URL paths instead of route names, supply a nameExtractor to the observer:
EmbedNavigatorObserver(
nameExtractor: (route) {
final name = route.settings.name ?? '';
if (name.startsWith('/product/')) return 'product_detail';
if (name == '/cart') return 'cart';
return null; // null = SDK ignores this push
},
)Then use those extracted names in enabledRoutes as usual.
5.4 GoRouter with ShellRoute (Bottom Tab Navigator)
ShellRoute keeps a persistent shell (e.g. a bottom navigation bar) while swapping child routes. The challenge is that ShellRoute children run inside a nested navigator — the top-level observer does not fire for them.
Solution: Wrap each tab's screen with EmbedRouteListener. This widget notifies the SDK of the current screen whenever the tab is displayed.
import 'package:go_router/go_router.dart';
import 'package:embed_flutter/embed_flutter.dart';
// ── Router ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
final _router = GoRouter(
initialLocation: '/home',
observers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()], // catches pushes outside the shell
routes: [
ShellRoute(
builder: (context, state, child) => AppShell(child: child),
routes: [
GoRoute(
path: '/home',
name: 'home',
builder: (context, state) => const HomeTab(),
),
GoRoute(
path: '/offers',
name: 'offers',
builder: (context, state) => const OffersTab(),
),
GoRoute(
path: '/profile',
name: 'profile',
builder: (context, state) => const ProfileTab(),
),
// Sub-route inside a tab (pushed onto the nested navigator)
GoRoute(
path: '/offers/detail/:id',
name: 'offer_detail',
builder: (context, state) {
final id = state.pathParameters['id']!;
return OfferDetailScreen(id: id);
},
),
],
),
],
);
// ── Shell scaffold ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
class AppShell extends StatelessWidget {
final Widget child;
const AppShell({super.key, required this.child});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final location = GoRouterState.of(context).uri.toString();
int currentIndex = 0;
if (location.startsWith('/offers')) currentIndex = 1;
if (location.startsWith('/profile')) currentIndex = 2;
return Scaffold(
body: child,
bottomNavigationBar: BottomNavigationBar(
currentIndex: currentIndex,
onTap: (i) {
switch (i) {
case 0: context.go('/home'); break;
case 1: context.go('/offers'); break;
case 2: context.go('/profile'); break;
}
},
items: const [
BottomNavigationBarItem(icon: Icon(Icons.home), label: 'Home'),
BottomNavigationBarItem(icon: Icon(Icons.local_offer), label: 'Offers'),
BottomNavigationBarItem(icon: Icon(Icons.person), label: 'Profile'),
],
),
);
}
}
// ── Tab screens ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Wrap each tab with EmbedRouteListener so the SDK knows which tab is active.
class HomeTab extends StatelessWidget {
const HomeTab({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedRouteListener(
routeName: 'home', // ✅ must match the name in enabledRoutes
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Home')),
body: const Center(child: Text('Home content')),
),
);
}
}
class OffersTab extends StatelessWidget {
const OffersTab({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedRouteListener(
routeName: 'offers', // ✅ agent visible — listed in enabledRoutes
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Offers')),
body: const Center(child: Text('Browse offers')),
),
);
}
}
class ProfileTab extends StatelessWidget {
const ProfileTab({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedRouteListener(
routeName: 'profile', // agent hidden — not listed in enabledRoutes
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Profile')),
body: const Center(child: Text('Your profile')),
),
);
}
}
// ── main ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
void main() {
embedInitialize(apiKey: 'your-api-key', appVersion: '1.0.0');
runApp(const MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
// 'profile' is intentionally excluded — agent hidden there
enabledRoutes: const ['home', 'offers', 'offer_detail'],
child: MaterialApp.router(routerConfig: _router),
);
}
}Key rules for ShellRoute:
| Rule | Why |
|---|---|
Add EmbedNavigatorObserver() to the top-level GoRouter | Catches pushes onto the root navigator (screens outside the shell) |
Wrap each tab's screen with EmbedRouteListener(routeName: '...') | Tells the SDK which tab is currently visible |
The routeName must match what you put in enabledRoutes | Otherwise the SDK cannot determine visibility |
5.5 MaterialApp Bottom TabNavigator (BottomNavigationBar)
When using BottomNavigationBar with a plain MaterialApp, push a new named route for each tab using Navigator.pushReplacementNamed so the route stack stays shallow and the observer fires on every tab switch.
// ── main.dart ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
void main() {
embedInitialize(apiKey: 'your-api-key', appVersion: '1.0.0');
runApp(const MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
// Agent appears only on the Plans and Exclusive tabs
enabledRoutes: const ['plans_tab', 'exclusive_tab'],
child: MaterialApp(
navigatorObservers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()], // ✅ required
home: const HomeTab(),
onGenerateRoute: (settings) {
switch (settings.name) {
case 'home_tab':
return MaterialPageRoute(settings: settings, builder: (_) => const HomeTab());
case 'plans_tab':
return MaterialPageRoute(settings: settings, builder: (_) => const PlansTab());
case 'exclusive_tab':
return MaterialPageRoute(settings: settings, builder: (_) => const ExclusiveTab());
case 'profile_tab':
return MaterialPageRoute(settings: settings, builder: (_) => const ProfileTab());
default:
return null;
}
},
),
);
}
}
// ── Shared bottom nav scaffold ────────────────────────────────────────────────
class AppNavBar extends StatelessWidget {
final Widget child;
final int currentIndex;
const AppNavBar({super.key, required this.child, required this.currentIndex});
static const _routes = ['home_tab', 'plans_tab', 'exclusive_tab', 'profile_tab'];
void _onTap(BuildContext context, int index) {
if (index == currentIndex) return;
// pushReplacementNamed so the back button doesn't cycle through tab history
// and EmbedNavigatorObserver fires didReplace → SDK updates its route state
Navigator.pushReplacementNamed(context, _routes[index]);
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
body: child,
bottomNavigationBar: BottomNavigationBar(
currentIndex: currentIndex,
type: BottomNavigationBarType.fixed,
selectedItemColor: Colors.blue[700],
unselectedItemColor: Colors.grey[600],
onTap: (i) => _onTap(context, i),
items: const [
BottomNavigationBarItem(icon: Icon(Icons.home), label: 'Home'),
BottomNavigationBarItem(icon: Icon(Icons.description), label: 'Plans'),
BottomNavigationBarItem(icon: Icon(Icons.star), label: 'Exclusive'),
BottomNavigationBarItem(icon: Icon(Icons.person), label: 'Profile'),
],
),
);
}
}
// ── Tab screens ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
class HomeTab extends StatelessWidget {
const HomeTab({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return AppNavBar(
currentIndex: 0,
// Agent hidden — 'home_tab' is not in enabledRoutes
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Home')),
body: const Center(child: Text('Home content')),
),
);
}
}
class PlansTab extends StatelessWidget {
const PlansTab({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return AppNavBar(
currentIndex: 1,
// ✅ Agent visible — 'plans_tab' is in enabledRoutes
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Plans')),
body: const Center(child: Text('Browse plans')),
),
);
}
}
class ExclusiveTab extends StatelessWidget {
const ExclusiveTab({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return AppNavBar(
currentIndex: 2,
// ✅ Agent visible — 'exclusive_tab' is in enabledRoutes
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Exclusive')),
body: const Center(child: Text('Exclusive deals')),
),
);
}
}
class ProfileTab extends StatelessWidget {
const ProfileTab({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return AppNavBar(
currentIndex: 3,
// Agent hidden — 'profile_tab' is not in enabledRoutes
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Profile')),
body: const Center(child: Text('Your profile')),
),
);
}
}How it works:
Navigator.pushReplacementNamedfiresdidReplaceonEmbedNavigatorObserver, which updates the current route in the SDK.- The SDK checks the new route name against
enabledRoutesand shows or hides the agent button — no extra code needed.
6. Sending Events
6.1 USER_DATA (Required)
This is the only required event. Send it after you have a logged-in user ID. It activates voice features and associates all future analytics with that user.
embedEvent(
EventKeys.USER_DATA,
UserEventPayload(
app_user_id: 'user_12345', // required — your unique user identifier
data: {
'name': 'Priya Sharma', // optional extra fields sent to the agent
'email': 'priya@example.com',
'plan': 'premium',
},
),
);When to call it:
| Scenario | When to call |
|---|---|
| Auth flow | Immediately after signIn() / token refresh succeeds |
| No auth (demo apps) | In initState of your first meaningful screen |
The SDK queues this event internally if the server config hasn't loaded yet and flushes it automatically — you do not need to wait or retry.
6.2 SCREEN_STATE (Optional)
Sends additional context about the current screen to the agent. Useful when you want the agent to know which step of a multi-step form the user is on, or when multiple routes share one screen widget.
embedEvent(
EventKeys.SCREEN_STATE,
ScreenEventPayload(
screen: 'loan_application_step_2',
data: {
'step': 2,
'total_steps': 5,
'category': 'home_loan',
},
),
);Call it in initState or whenever meaningful context changes (e.g. a stepper advances).
6.3 CUSTOM_EVENT (Optional)
Captures any interaction you want to relay to the agent — button taps, option selections, modal opens, etc.
embedEvent(
EventKeys.CUSTOM_EVENT,
CustomEventPayload(
data: {
'context': 'plan_selection',
'action': 'plan_selected',
'plan_id': 'gold_12m',
'price': 1499,
'currency': 'INR',
},
),
);6.4 ANALYTICS_DATA (Optional)
Like CUSTOM_EVENT but requires a named event identifier. Use this for conversion events, funnel steps, or any event you need to categorise by a fixed name on the backend.
embedEvent(
EventKeys.ANALYTICS_DATA,
AnalyticsDataEventPayload(
event_name: 'payment_completed',
data: {
'amount': 4999,
'currency': 'INR',
'payment_method': 'upi',
'transaction_id': 'txn_abc123',
},
),
);Event reference table:
| Event | Class | event_name required? | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
USER_DATA | UserEventPayload | — | Identifying the user and activating the agent |
SCREEN_STATE | ScreenEventPayload | — | Providing screen or step context to the agent |
CUSTOM_EVENT | CustomEventPayload | No | Ad-hoc interactions and selections |
ANALYTICS_DATA | AnalyticsDataEventPayload | Yes | Named funnel and conversion events |
7. EmbedWidget Parameters Reference
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
child | Widget | — | Required. Your MaterialApp / MaterialApp.router |
showEmbedWidget | bool | true | Master visibility toggle — set to false to hide the agent everywhere |
enabledRoutes | List<String> | [] | Route names where the agent button should appear |
showOnAllRoutes | bool | false | Show on every route. Use with disabledRoutes to exclude specific screens |
disabledRoutes | List<String> | [] | Routes where the agent is always hidden (takes priority over showOnAllRoutes) |
routeMatchMode | RouteMatchMode | exact | How route names are compared — see section 7.1 |
onPermissionStatusChanged | void Function(bool)? | — | Called after the mic permission dialog — true = granted, false = denied |
onBackRequested | Future<bool> Function()? | — | First-chance handler for the agent's back mission (rung 1 of the back ladder) |
embedButtonDelayMs | int | 0 | Delay (ms) before the FAB appears after landing on an enabled route |
continuity | EmbedButtonContinuity? | reset | Whether the FAB hides/re-shows on navigation between enabled routes (keepVisible / reset) |
buttonDelay | EmbedButtonDelay? | — | Pre-show delay + its EmbedButtonDelayPolicy (how often the delay applies) |
buttonVisibility | EmbedButtonVisibilityConfig? | — | Per-screen visibility groups — different continuity/delay per set of screens (see §7.2) |
usePlatformRouteAllowlist | bool | false | Opt in to the manager (dashboard) route allowlist instead of enabledRoutes |
debug | bool | false | Narrate the SDK's show/hide/call decisions to the console |
7.1 Route Match Modes
By default route names must match exactly. Use routeMatchMode to relax this:
EmbedWidget(
routeMatchMode: RouteMatchMode.startsWith,
enabledRoutes: const ['/product'], // matches /product, /product/detail, /product/42, etc.
child: ...,
)| Mode | Behaviour | Example pattern | Matches |
|---|---|---|---|
RouteMatchMode.exact | Exact string match (default) | 'cart' | only 'cart' |
RouteMatchMode.startsWith | Route starts with the pattern | '/product' | /product, /product/detail, /product/42 |
RouteMatchMode.contains | Route contains the pattern anywhere | 'product' | 'product_list', 'new_product', '/v2/product/3' |
Leading slashes are normalised — 'home' and '/home' are treated identically.
7.2 Visibility Groups
By default, continuity / buttonDelay apply to all enabled routes. To give
different sets of screens different visibility behavior — e.g. re-show the FAB
on every onboarding step but keep it up throughout checkout — pass
buttonVisibility with named groups (React Native parity):
EmbedWidget(
enabledRoutes: const ['home'],
buttonVisibility: const EmbedButtonVisibilityConfig(
defaultDelayMs: 0, // fallback for enabled screens in no group
groups: [
EmbedButtonGroupConfig(
id: 'onboarding',
screens: ['welcome', 'kyc', 'review'],
continuity: EmbedButtonContinuity.reset, // re-show each step
delayMs: 1200,
delayPolicy: EmbedButtonDelayPolicy.perScreen,
),
EmbedButtonGroupConfig(
id: 'checkout',
screens: ['cart', 'payment', 'confirm'],
continuity: EmbedButtonContinuity.keepVisible, // stay up through checkout
delayMs: 300,
delayPolicy: EmbedButtonDelayPolicy.oncePerGroupEntry,
),
],
),
child: MyApp(),
)- Resolution: for the current route, the first group whose
screenscontains it wins; itscontinuity/delayMs/delayPolicyoverride the widget-level values. A screen in no group falls back todefaultDelayMs→buttonDelay→embedButtonDelayMs, and the widget-levelcontinuity. - A group's
screensare part of the allow-list — listing a screen in a group makes the FAB show there even if it isn't inenabledRoutes. delayPolicyscopes per group:oncePerGroupEntrydelays once when you enter the group and skips while you stay in it;oncePerAppSessiondelays once per app launch;perScreenre-delays on every screen. Moving between two groups counts as a real group change.
EmbedButtonGroupConfig field | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
id | String | Stable group identity (the delay/continuity scope). |
screens | List<String> | Route names in this group (matched with routeMatchMode). |
continuity | EmbedButtonContinuity | keepVisible / reset for this group. |
delayMs | int? | Pre-show delay for this group (falls back to widget-level). |
delayPolicy | EmbedButtonDelayPolicy? | perScreen / oncePerGroupEntry / oncePerAppSession. |
8. Advanced: Widget Visibility and Positioning
FAB Position
The floating button's position comes from the backend widget_config
(widget_position / right_padding / bottom_padding), set from the Revrag
dashboard. There are no host position props on EmbedWidget.
Show on All Routes with Exclusions
When you want the agent everywhere except a handful of screens:
EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
showOnAllRoutes: true,
disabledRoutes: const ['splash', 'login', 'otp_verification'],
child: ...,
)Microphone Permission Callback
Handle the case where the user denies microphone access when starting a call:
final _messengerKey = GlobalKey<ScaffoldMessengerState>();
EmbedWidget(
showEmbedWidget: true,
enabledRoutes: const ['home', 'dashboard'],
onPermissionStatusChanged: (bool granted) {
if (!granted) {
_messengerKey.currentState?.showSnackBar(
const SnackBar(
content: Text(
'Microphone access is required for voice calls. Please enable it in Settings.',
),
),
);
}
},
child: MaterialApp(
scaffoldMessengerKey: _messengerKey,
navigatorObservers: [EmbedNavigatorObserver()],
home: const HomeScreen(),
),
)When is onPermissionStatusChanged called?
- After the user taps the agent button and the permission dialog is shown.
- Before the call connection is established.
true= permission granted, the call will proceed.false= permission denied or permanently denied.
9. Advanced: Listening to SDK Events
Subscribe to events emitted by the agent from anywhere in your app.
Agent lifecycle events
import 'package:embed_flutter/embed_flutter.dart';
class MyScreen extends StatefulWidget { ... }
class _MyScreenState extends State<MyScreen> {
late final String _handle;
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
// One-arg form = every agent event. Two-arg form subscribes to one:
// embedOnAgent(SdkEventName.agentConversationStarted.value, (event) { ... });
_handle = embedOnAgent((Map<String, dynamic> event) {
final name = SdkEventName.fromValue(
(event['type'] ?? event['event_name']) as String?);
switch (name) {
case SdkEventName.agentConversationStarted:
print('Voice call started');
case SdkEventName.agentConversationEnded:
print('Voice call ended');
case SdkEventName.microphonePermissionAllowed:
print('Mic granted');
case SdkEventName.microphonePermissionDenied:
print('Mic denied');
default:
break;
}
});
}
@override
void dispose() {
embedOffAgent(_handle); // always unsubscribe to avoid memory leaks
super.dispose();
}
}Available SdkEventName constants:
| Constant | Value | Fired when |
|---|---|---|
SdkEventName.agentVisible | 'agent_visible' | Agent FAB appears on screen |
SdkEventName.agentConversationStarted | 'agent_conversation_started' | User starts a voice call |

10. Utility Functions
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
embedInitialize({required apiKey, embedUrl, required appVersion, onResult}) | Initialize the SDK before runApp — the ONLY place credentials / app version enter |
embedEvent(EventKeys, EventPayload) | Send a typed event to the agent |
embedTrackEvent(String key, Map<String, dynamic> payload) | Send an analytics event under a raw string key |
embedClearStorageCache() | Wipe all persisted SDK data — call on logout |
embedOnAgent(listener) / embedOnAgent(String event, listener) → String | Subscribe to all agent lifecycle events, or just one; returns a handle |
embedOffAgent(handle) / embedOffAgent(event, handle) | Unsubscribe using the handle from embedOnAgent |
embedOn(String key, listener) → String / embedOff(key, handle) | Subscribe to any raw SDK event key |
embedTrackRageClick(elementId, x, y) | Report a rage-click from host code |
embedTrackFormEvent(String formId, Map<String, dynamic> fields) | Report a form interaction from host code |
EmbedWidget.isActive | true when the agent FAB is visible on the current route (config loaded, route enabled, not hidden) |
EmbedWidget.isLive | true once the SDK's widget config has loaded from the server (the agent is ready) |
EmbedWidget.forceCleanup() | Force-stop the agent and release resources |
Call control
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
embedStartCall() / EmbedWidget.startCall({agentTriggerMode}) | Start a voice call. Omit the mode ⇒ co-pilot; pass AgentTriggerMode.WORKFLOW for the Revrag-owned panel/avatar surface. |
embedEndCall() / EmbedWidget.endCall() | End the in-progress call. |
embedIsCallActive() / EmbedWidget.isCallActive | Whether a call is live. |
EmbedWidget.openAvatarScreen() | Open the full-screen avatar surface (starts a workflow call if none is running, else re-opens it). |
embedCollapseWidget() / EmbedWidget.collapseWidget() | Fold the expanded bar back to the FAB (the call keeps running). |
embedExpandWidget() / EmbedWidget.expandWidget() | Expand the FAB to the bar, as if the user tapped it (emits agent_tap_to_open). startCall() does not auto-expand — pair it with this to surface the in-call bar. |
EmbedWidget.clearUserSession() | Drop per-user state (ends any call) — call on logout. |
AgentTriggerMode — CO_PILOT (default): the host app owns the UI, the agent
operates your own screens, and agent-driven panels are dropped. WORKFLOW: Revrag
owns the UI, panels render, and the full-screen avatar opens on connect. The mode is
declared at startCall and latched for the life of the call.
// co-pilot (default) — the agent drives your app's own screens
await EmbedWidget.startCall();
// workflow — the Revrag-owned panel / avatar surface
await EmbedWidget.startCall(agentTriggerMode: AgentTriggerMode.WORKFLOW);Clear cache on logout:
Future<void> onLogout() async {
await embedClearStorageCache();
// Navigate to login screen

}12. Safety — the SDK cannot crash your app
The SDK is a guest in your app and is engineered so that nothing it does can bring the host down. You do not need any defensive wrapping around it.
- Public API never throws at your call site. A mismatched
embedEventpayload returnsfalse; a wrong-signature or bad-argumentembedOnAgentreturns an empty handle; a throwingnameExtractoryou pass toEmbedNavigatorObserverfalls back to the route name instead of breaking navigation;embedClearStorageCache()never rejects. - Async work is fully fenced. Every SDK-owned timer, stream listener, post-frame callback and background task is individually guarded, so nothing the SDK does in the background escapes into your app's error zone.
- Malformed backend config can't crash a build. Every field from the
server
widget_configis type-coerced (a wrong-typed color, size or flag falls back to a default) rather than cast blindly, so no configuration response can throw during a widget build. - The LiveKit voice engine is fenced. A chained
PlatformDispatcher.onError(installed byembedInitialize) swallows only the voice stack's own async exceptions — LiveKit's typed errors (e.g. a renegotiationNegotiationError) and any untyped error thrown from insidelivekit_client/flutter_webrtc(such as a signaling race) — and passes every other error straight through to your existing handler, so your own crash reporting and behaviour are untouched.
The guard is scoped: it suppresses only errors originating in the SDK's voice dependency. Your app's own exceptions reach your handlers exactly as before.
13. Troubleshooting
Agent button not visible
| Check | Fix |
|---|---|
showEmbedWidget is false | Set it to true |
Route name is not listed in enabledRoutes | Add it to enabledRoutes |
EmbedNavigatorObserver is missing | Add it to navigatorObservers on MaterialApp or observers on GoRouter |
USER_DATA event not sent | The agent requires user identity. Call embedEvent(USER_DATA, ...) after login. |
| Invalid API key | Verify the key passed to embedInitialize |
| Network error on startup | Check the onResult callback in embedInitialize for the error message |
Agent not showing on a specific tab (ShellRoute / BottomNavigationBar)
| Check | Fix |
|---|---|
Tab screen not wrapped with EmbedRouteListener | Wrap each tab body with EmbedRouteListener(routeName: '...') |
pushReplacementNamed not used for tab switches (MaterialApp) | Switch to pushReplacementNamed so didReplace fires on EmbedNavigatorObserver |
Tab route name not in enabledRoutes | Add it to enabledRoutes |
routeName in EmbedRouteListener doesn't match enabledRoutes | Both must be identical strings |
iOS microphone permission never requested
| Check | Fix |
|---|---|
NSMicrophoneUsageDescription missing from Info.plist | Add the key with a usage description string |
PERMISSION_MICROPHONE=1 missing from Podfile | Add the macro inside post_install and run pod install |
GoRouter routes not tracked
| Check | Fix |
|---|---|
| Observer missing | Add EmbedNavigatorObserver() to GoRouter.observers |
Using path strings in enabledRoutes instead of route names | Use the name: field value of GoRoute, not the path: string |
nameExtractor needed | If GoRoute name values differ from what you want to match, supply a custom nameExtractor |
Clearing SDK data on logout
Future<void> onLogout() async {
await embedClearStorageCache();
// Navigate to login screen
