Gen 2 quickstart app throws error "The provided configuration is not a valid json"

[hangoocn]

Description

I have follow this gen2 quickstart to create an flutter app, but experiences two issues that make this not work:

1. The doc's sample code to add auth is importing 'amplifyconfiguration.dart' but the actual file generated by sandbox is 'amplify_outputs.dart', also 'Amplify.configure(outputs)' should be Amplify.configure(amplifyConfig)
2. After fix the fthe above, and run the app, it throws error "The provided configuration is not a valid json. Check underlyingException." for line "Amplify.configure(amplifyConfig)"

This happens when running the app in windows or Chrome.

Hello @hangoocn - This appears to be a documentation issue. The command should include --config-version 0

npx ampx sandbox --outputs-format dart ----outputs-out-dir lib --config-version 0

Thanks @Jordan-Nelson , it is working when I add --outputs-version 0.
