[Question] - [Analytics] - UpdateEndpoint is not send data

Hi, I have a question about Analytics.updateEndpoint(), my case is:

1. Configure Auth and Analytics properties in Amplify.configure on my startup file.

import Amplify, {
    Analytics
} from 'aws-amplify';

Amplify.configure({
    Auth: {
        region: process.env.REACT_APP_AWS_REGION,
        identityPoolId: process.env.REACT_APP_AWS_IDENTITY_POOL_ID,
        userPoolId: process.env.REACT_APP_AWS_USER_POOL_ID,
        userPoolWebClientId: process.env.REACT_APP_AWS_USER_POOL_CLIENT_ID,
    },
    Analytics: {
        AWSPinpoint: {
            region: process.env.REACT_APP_AWS_REGION,
            appId: process.env.REACT_APP_AWS_PINPOINT_APP_ID,
            mandatorySignIn: false
        }
    }
});

1. After Amplify Login on Cognito UserPool I’m invoke the method Analytics.updateEndpoint() passing custom UserId and UserAttributes

Auth.currentUserInfo().then((info) => {

    Analytics.updateEndpoint({
        userId: info.attributes.sub,
        userAttributes: info.attributes
    }).then((data) => {
        dispatch(setProgress(false));
        dispatch({
            type: LOGIN_SUCCESS,
            user: data
        });
        dispatch(redirectTo('/'));
    });
}).catch(error => {
    dispatch(setProgress(false));
    dispatch({
        type: LOGIN_ERROR,
        error: error
    });
});

But when I invoke the method, on the Network tab on Google Chrome, the request is not there. I set up the Pinpoint to Stream events to Firehose and when I saw on S3 Files de userAttributes is empty and the UserId is not changing.

I would like to known if can I change endpoint Information after configure Amplify on startup?

Thanks

@lucasvieirasilva, from what I see, you did everything right except that your endpoint needs an address. If your default config does not contain an endpoint address, you need to pass in one the first time you call updateEndpoint. You may try something like this:

Updating this for future reference userAttributes object expects array values. Right implementation should be:

Auth.currentUserInfo()
	.then(({ attributes }) => {
		const userAttributes = {};
		Object.entries(attributes).forEach(([key, value]) => {
			userAttributes[key] = [`${value}`];
		});
		Analytics.updateEndpoint({
			address: attributes.email, // Or phone_number
			channelType: 'EMAIL', // Or 'SMS'
			userId: attributes.sub,
			userAttributes
		});
	})
	.then(() => console.log('Do something else'));

@madmed88 I think so, too. Made a detailed tutorial here.
