Please paste your .startChat call from JS?

It’s crashing, because ZDKChatEngine is throwing an error, and we’re unfortunately swallowing it.

You can see what error if you manually change this line:

react-native-zendesk-chat/ios/RNZendeskChatModule.m

Line 159 in 799c8d2

[ZDKChatEngine engineAndReturnError:&error]

- [ZDKChatEngine engineAndReturnError:&error]
+ [ZDKChatEngine engineAndReturnError:&error] ?: NSNull.null

This change will give you a better error log about the true problem

@fbartho I got this after applying the code

[RNZendeskChatModule] Internal Error loading ZDKChatEngine ChatProvidersSDK.ChatError

[rnike]

okay I know why it fails, I haven't init before startChat
