hey so I’m having an issue with Base64 encoding, it seems whenever I encode a certain string in my app, the result is different from when I use something like <http://base64encode.org|base64encode.org>, always different

i just tried on a much smaller string.. it was the same

check that both strings have or do not have a newline at the end?

<https://superuser.com/questions/1225134/why-does-the-base64-of-a-string-contain-n/1225334> might give some hints

<@U4T1QFSCV> is most probably correct. Try to `.trim()` the string before encoding to test. (Note! trim only if you really want to remove empty spaces or `\n` at the end of your string)

it was like this


```"{\n" +
                    "\"userId\":\"${fireAuth.currentUser?.uid}\",\n" +
                    "\"carId\":\"${carDetails.id}\",\n" +
                    "\"car\":\"${carDetails.make} ${carDetails.model} ${carDetails.submodel} ${carDetails.year}\",\n" +
                    "\"sellerPhone\":\"+971504421995\",\n" +
                    "\"buyerEmail":"${fireAuth.currentUser?.email}\"" +
                    "\n}"```

now its like this

```"{" +
                    "\"userId\":\"${fireAuth.currentUser?.uid}\"," +
                    "\"carId\":\"${carDetails.id}\"," +
                    "\"car\":\"${carDetails.make} ${carDetails.model} ${carDetails.submodel} ${carDetails.year}\"," +
                    "\"sellerPhone\":\"+971504421995\"," +
                    "\"buyerEmail":"${fireAuth.currentUser?.email}\"" +
                    "}"```

produces the correct encoding result
