Support question: How to use this plugin with Ionic 5

[Sunny41]

Hi there,

I've wanted to use this plugin in my ionic 5 project. sadly, I couldn't find how I have to import it to my project. I use this plugin in a component.

I can't address ContactsX with window.ContactsX.xyz() and since the whole class is static, I don't know were Ionic instanciates it...

I tried to import it as you said import ContactsX from 'cordova-plugin-contacts-x'

called the pick() function like so:

ContactsX.pick(function(success){ console.log(success); }, function(error){ console.log(error); });

all I got was the error message:

undefined is not an Object.

Could you help me please? :)
