ViewsUse a wraped variable in the type() function. Cypress
I'm trying to save a string with:
cy.get('#accessInfoText').invoke('text').then($wholeText => {
let pattern = /(?<=code: ).{10}/i;
let number = $wholeText.match(pattern);
cy.wrap(number).as('accessCode');
cy.log(number); // AsTE5sOlJU
});
Later on, in the test, I need it to type it into an input field:
cy.get('@accessCode').then(code => {
cy.log(code); // [AsTE5sOlJU]
cy.followLabel('Access code').type(code)
});
And my problem is that cypress converts it to an object. Which is not accepted by the .type function.

The line let number = $wholeText.match(pattern); returns an array of all matches, even if you only have one.
Try
let number = $wholeText.match(pattern)[0]; // take first match only
If there's a possibility that there's no matches, you would need to expand it to avoid a runtime error.
const matches = $wholeText.match(pattern)
const number = matches.length ? matches[0] : null
