  GoogleAppInvites.configure(
    CLIENT_ID, // from .plist file
    SCOPES // array of authorization names: eg ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login']
  );
} else {
  GoogleAppInvites.init()
}

let Emitter = (Platform.OS === "android") ? DeviceEventEmitter : NativeAppEventEmitter;

Emitter.addListener('googleAppInvitesError', (error) => {
  console.log('ERROR App Invites in', error);
});

Emitter.addListener('googleAppInviteIds', (body) => {
  console.log('User invited these IDS:', body);
