How do I format a connection string for Azure Email Node JS file?

Question

I am unsure how to unsure how to format the connection string. When I run the file it gives an error stating

“node_modules/@azure/communication-common/dist/index.js:250

const match = s.match(CONNECTION_STRING_REGEX);

                      ^TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'match’)”

I am unsure on how this error is occurring and the demo provided on the website says nothing on how to format it.

// Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation.
// TODO: update when connection string format is finalized
const CONNECTION_STRING_REGEX = /endpoint=(.*);accesskey=(.*)/i;
const tryParseConnectionString = (s) => {
    const match = s.match(CONNECTION_STRING_REGEX);
    if ((match === null || match === void 0 ? void 0 : match[1]) && match[2]) {
        return { endpoint: match[1], credential: new coreAuth.AzureKeyCredential(match[2]) };
    }
    return undefined;
};
/**
 * Returns an EndpointCredential to easily access properties of the connection string.
 * @hidden
 *
 * @param connectionString - The connection string to parse
 * @returns Object to access the endpoint and the credentials
 */
const parseConnectionString = (connectionString) => {
    const parsedConnectionString = tryParseConnectionString(connectionString);
    if (parsedConnectionString) {
        return parsedConnectionString;
    }
    else {
        throw new Error(`Invalid connection string ${connectionString}`);
    }
};

@Chris The error that you are seeing suggests that s in the tryParseConnectionString function is null or undefined. You should check how you are passing the connection string in your code.
