We are unable to set a value that contain double quotes, as for example a JSON string.

${example_token}= set variable [{“NAME”,“VALUE”}]
LocalStorage Set Item TokenManager.profiles ${example_token}

The following error message appears:
Suspended due to logged failure: Error: page.evaluate: SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
at eval ()
at UtilityScript.evaluate (:197:30)
at UtilityScript. (:1:44)

What do we need to change to make this possible? We could really use some help here :blush:

@jessicavanunen, stumbled across same error while trying to put json in local storage. Solved it by replacing " with \\".
Full example:

    ${settings}    Create Dictionary
    ...    cookies=${True}
    ...    region=global
    ${json}    Set Variable   ${{json.dumps($settings)}}
    ${json}    Replace String    ${json}    "    \\"
    LocalStorage Set Item
    ...    key
    ...    ${json}
