gmail.get.email_data failing for some reason

I believe I found a bug but want to make sure my code is correct.

gmail.observe.on('view_thread', () => {
  const emailData = gmail.get.email_data()
  console.log(`${emailData}`)
})

Based on the documentation I believe that when I click an email thread, emailData should return an object which contains data about the email.

When I click an email thread the code executes at the proper time. Unfortunately I get the following in the console. The GET seems to be receiving an undefined param which results in an erroneous response format. The behavior is the same even if I move lines 2-3 out of the observer.

I had the same error. Just Update your gmail.js file.

As discussed to great lengths in a previous issue, google has effectively obsoleted all XHR-based APIs we’ve used in the past. This particularly includes anything related to gmail.get.email_data().

Now it’s 2019 and it should be considered fundamentally broken.

Consider replacing all use of gmail.get.email_data() with gmail.new.get.email_data().

Please note data-format differs, it has some limitations and it’s not a simple drop-in replacement.
