Dynamic configs

getConfig(name) returns the typed value of a dynamic config — a JSON value (String, Number, Boolean, Map, List, or null) managed in the dashboard.

Bound Client form

val flags = Client(currentUser)
val copy = flags.getConfig("billing_copy")   // → Any?

With a default

default (defaults to null) is returned when the config key is absent — no override and not present in the loaded blob. A null override is honoured and wins over the default.

// returns "Pay now" if the config key is absent
flags.getConfig("billing_copy", default = "Pay now")

Typing the result

The value is Any?. Cast as needed:

val copy = flags.getConfig("billing_copy") as? String ?: "Pay now"

@Suppress("UNCHECKED_CAST")
val limits = flags.getConfig("rate_limits") as? Map<String, Any?> ?: emptyMap()

Configs carry their value in the blob (targeting is resolved server-side at publish), so getConfig is not user-scoped — but you still read it through the bound Client like every other lookup.
