JavaScript template string missed place for a variable

UI.Vision RPA Bug Reports

I am trying to read a CSV file that I use to post JS tutorial but in one of the example codes it contains a template string but it seems it is being misplaced as a variable when I use Xtype in UI. vision how can I bypass this

the string "Parameters, Functions can accept input values called parameters.","function greet(name) { return Hello, ${name}!; } 🧑 // #JavaScript" ${name is being misplaced as a UI.vision variable

this is because the the xtype think any ${} is a variable so is there a way i can overcome this

6

solved i used a bit of js to replace the $ sign with the equivalent keys stroke
function replaceDollarSign(input) {
return input.replace(/$/g, “${KEY_SHIFT+KEY_4}”);
}

return replaceDollarSign(${tread[1]});
