Can't get Branch-cordova-sdk install -- Ionic

[newuser44]

Branch cordova is in the config.xml file.
Got to setup iOS. Have a script the installs node_moduals and then removes and adds ios.
During this process it fails.

Using cordova-fetch for cordova-ios@~4.5.4

    Path: platforms/ios

I remove the plugin cordova plugin remove branch-cordova-sdk

Re-setup node_modals and iOS Everything is fine.

Install branch-cordovan again. This works now

Installing "branch-cordova-sdk" for ios
Adding branch-cordova-sdk to package.json
Saved plugin info for "branch-cordova-sdk" to config.xml

Go to build iOS (legacy way)

Fails TypeError: Cannot read property 'flags' of undefined I don't think this is related to branch-cordovan but the only way to fix it is re-install node modules. And the loop continues.

After removing was able to install iOS.

Trying to add Branch back in. Get another error.
