Firebase – How to check if user is authenticated with Google or with Email and password?

I’d like to implement a "Reset password" button in the settings of my app but I think I should enable it only for users authenticated with Email and password, and not for users logged with Google.

How could I check the authentication method? Because I could put an If statement and show the button only if the user is logged with email and password I think

    You could use,

    FirebaseAuth.instance.currentUser.providerData

    To get the specific provider of the user’s authentication.

    Either store it in database how the given user logged in or you can use https://pub.dev/packages/shared_preferences to store a value.

    enum LoginType {
  EMAIL, GOOGLE
}

main() {
   final prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();

   if (userLoggedInWithEmail()) {
      await prefs.setString('USER_LOGGED_IN_WITH', LoginType.EMAIL.toString());
   } else {
      await prefs.setString('USER_LOGGED_IN_WITH', LoginType.GOOGLE.toString());
   }
}
