decode base 64 [DART]

Issue

I’m new here.
I have a problem decoding my string in base64.

when I use https://www.base64decode.org/

It works perfectly, so I believe the problem is not my String
but whenever I try to dart it doesn’t work

I try to decode like this:

HtmlSac = utf8.decode (base64Url.decode (MyString))

He returns

FormatException: Missing extension byte (at offset 2451)

my String:

Solution

Your bytes do not represent a valid UTF-8 string. It appears that they are, instead, encoded in ISO-8891-1 ("Latin-1").

Use this instead:

import 'dart:convert';

void main() {
  var x = 'PCFET0NUW~~~~~~C9odG1sPg0K';

  var decoded = latin1.decode(base64.decode(x));
  print(decoded);
}
