This problem basically comes when your compiler gets failed to understand the difference between cast operator of the type string to Number   you can use the Number object and pass your value to get the appropriate results for it by using Number  lt  lt  lt  lt    Variable Name

you just use variable type any and remove these types of problem   error code       let accessToken   res    localStorage setItem LocalStorageConstants TOKEN KEY  accessToken     given error Argument of type      is not assignable to parameter of type  string    success Code       var accessToken any   res    localStorage setItem LocalStorageConstants TOKEN KEY  accessToken     we create var type variable then use variable type any and resolve this issue   any   handle any type of value so that remove error

For what it worth  if anyone has this problem only in VSCode  just restart VSCode and it should fix it  Sometimes  Intellisense seems to mess up with imports or types    Related to Typescript  Argument of type   39 RegExpMatchArray  39  is not assignable to parameter of type   39 string  39

Also adding other Scenarios where you may see these Errors        First Check you compiler version  Download latest Typescript compiler   to support ES6 syntaxes   typescript still produces output even with typing errors this doesn t   actually block development       When you see these errors Check for Syntaxes in initialization or when Calling these methods or variables  Check whether the parameters of the functions are of wrong data Type you initialized as  string  and assigning a  boolean  or  number   For Example  1    private errors  string        somewhere in code you assign a boolean value to  string  errors      this errors true     or      this error 5   2    private values  Array lt number gt           this values push value      Argument of type  X  is not assignable to parameter of type  X    The Error message here is because the Square brackets for Array Initialization is missing  It works even without it  but VS Code red alerts   private values  Array lt number gt            this values push value     Note  Remember that Javascript typecasts according to the value assigned  So typescript notifies them but the code executes even with these errors highlighted in VS Code  Ex     var a 2   typeof a      number   var a  Ignatius    typeof a      string
