Spaces are significant in YAML. so you have to manage all lines in indentation.

in my case assets is indented too far. that’s why I am facing that error.

flutter_test:
  sdk: flutter

flutter:
  uses-material-design: true
  assets:
    - loadjson/person.json

So its all About Spaces are significant in YAML so you cant add extra space in yaml file else it will cause error Flutter Pub: Expected a key while parsing a block mapping. path:
