This syntax error occurred when attempting to parse a response returned from a call made to a Suitelet.
About the Syntax Error
“SyntaxError: Expected end of stream at char 1427860”.
This error is an indication of an issue with the string that is being attempted to parse.
In my case, for an unknown reason, “/n/n/n/n” was appended to the end of the response object string being returned.
Resolving this Syntax Error
There are multiple ways of resolving this error. The way I found to be consistent was getting the last index of the closing bracket to the response body object and removing all characters after that index.
Resolve this issue by completing the following steps:
// get last index of closing bracket
var lastIndex = suiteletResponse.getBody().lastIndexOf('}');
if (lastIndex !== -1) {
// trim characters after last index of closing bracket from response body
var trimmedResponseBody = suiteletResponse.getBody().slice(0, lastIndex + 1);
}
var suiteletResponseBody = JSON.parse(trimmedResponseBody)Parsing the trimmed response should give you a properly returned object!
