Argument of type 'null' is not assignable to parameter of type 'TableContinuationToken'

Question

According to the docs link, when querying a table using queryEntities, the continuationToken can be passed in as null or undefined (Please use 'null' or 'undefined' if this is the first operation.) However, that does not compile: Argument of type 'null' is not assignable to parameter of type 'TableContinuationToken'.

Getting the error while running the server.

And this error is also caught by eslint.

Answer 1

I got 3 workaround solutions to get it resolved.

1. use of @ts-ignore

2. use <any> in front of null.

3. use null as any. This also recommended by Sonar Linting

Both solutions are working and I am able to start the server.
