Fixing Javascript Errors: ChatGPT API Return Issue Solutions

Javascript & ChatGPT API Return Issue | XM Community

When working with a web service API call from ChatGPT and handling the returned string set to a variable, certain challenges may arise. For instance, the API may return content in a specific format such as (Story ! Question ! Choice1 ! Choice2 ! Choice3). However, issues can occur when there is an unexpected line break between the story and the question, causing errors in the subsequent JavaScript code block.

Handling the API Response

Approximately 30% of the time, the JavaScript modifications to the API return variable work without any issues. However, in the remaining 70%, the presence of a line break leads to an unexpected token error. This error not only affects the specific variable but also disrupts the entire code execution, making it challenging to implement error handling mechanisms.

Seeking Solutions

To address this issue, various approaches have been explored. Attempts have been made to modify the prompts sent to ChatGPT in order to influence the return format. Strategies such as removing all formatting, avoiding HTML formatting, requesting a single line of plain text, eliminating newline characters, and preventing page breaks have been tested. Despite these efforts, the issue persists, indicating a need for a different solution.
