Number returned from js script injection function rejected as int32 . Bug workaround needed

Inject JS Script (JavaScript) behaves differently in Internet Explorer and Chrome

See the script below. function return1(){ return 1; } Same activity works fine with IE and results in an error when tried with chrome. See the details below. Steps to reproduce: Start a new process.

Discusses an error that prevents UiPath from receiving numeric results such as 1. Strings appear to have no problem.

Hi @steved

Welcome to our UiPath Forum!

Could you provide some extra information, such as your Studio version and a screenshot from your Package Manager (= to get the versions of your activity packages used in the project)?

EDIT
I dug a bit deeper and the issue was already fixed by our team. The fix should be released in the next community edition release.
