This might be a bug in Google Scripts, or perhaps I am doing something wrong. If I include a country suffix com.xx in a string variable, it gets replaced with "(class)". Just "com" is fine, but anything after that triggers this.

Here are my two variables

var VarA = 'https://example.com.au/projects.json' ; var VarB = 'https://example.com/projects.json' ;

When I debug this, they behave differently. B is fine, but A gets (class) inserted

VarA string "https://example.(class)/projects.json" VarB string "https://example.com/projects.json"

Update: when I first posted this (13 Nov) this was occurring in all three:

  1. logger
  2. debug
  3. when passed to another function to get that URL

It is now working for logger and when passed to a function. Still occurring in debug mode, but I am guessing this was a bug that was addressed

    Can you share a minimal reproducible example? Commented Nov 13, 2017 at 5:40
  • This indeed seems to be the case during debugging prntscr.com/h9vyfi Placing the breakpoint after 'VarA' is assigned a value produces this wrong result in the console. However, in my case, it doesn't affect the Logger prntscr.com/h9vzly Could that be a Debugger console parser issue? Commented Nov 13, 2017 at 14:10
  • I've verified that this isn't an issue in the debugger. When I send VarA through to another function, it will fail at run time with an error along the lines of "that isn't a valid URL" (since example.(class)/blah isn't): Request failed for https://example.<?>/projects.json returned code 401.

  • Without an example I can't verify the behavior. What are you trying to do when this replacement occurs? Commented Nov 14, 2017 at 1:38
