The following _TypeError was thrown building Builder(dirty, dependencies: [MediaQuery]): type 'Future<Null>' is not a subtype of type 'Widget'

Context:

I am building a simple login app with azure ad, the app logins just fine and gets the token and redirects to the next page just fine, but before it redirects it throws an error

Error:

The following _TypeError was thrown building Builder(dirty, dependencies: [MediaQuery]): type 'Future' is not a subtype of type 'Widget'

The relevant error-causing widget was: Builder file:///D:/Projects/flutter/aims_mobile/lib/screens/authentication/signin.dart:101:17 When the exception was thrown, this was the stack: #0 _SignInState.build.

I don't know how to resolve this issue

You are passing a function Future instead of Widget which is causing this error.

isSignedIn
      ? Future.delayed(Duration.zero, () {  // <---- This is not a widget
            Navigator.of(context).pushReplacement(
                MaterialPageRoute(
            builder: (context) => NavScreen()));
        })
        : RaisedButton(
        child: Text("Sign In"),
        onPressed: handleSignIn,
    ),

Instead of doing this, you can use the Visibility widget to hide/show your "Sign In" button & using the bool isSignedIn, you can handle the navigation code.

Visibility(
  visible: !isSignedIn,
  child: RaisedButton(
    child: Text("Sign In"),
    onPressed: handleSignIn,
  ),
),

You should handle the navigation inside the initState method of your StatefulWidget which would look something like this:

@override
void initState() {
  super.initState();
  signInNavigation();
}

Future<void> signInNavigation() async {
  // isSignedIn = await yourMethodWhichReturnsSignInStatus(); <-- Replace this with your method

  if(isSignedIn) {
    // Your navigation code
    Navigator.of(context).pushReplacement(
                MaterialPageRoute(
            builder: (context) => NavScreen()));
  }
}
