I encountered an issue with $deferred.promise(); where I received the error message "'unknown' is not assignable to type 'string'". Is there a way to set this to a string?
Error TS2322 (TS) Type 'JQueryPromise<unknown>' is not assignable to type 'JQueryPromise<string>'.
Type 'unknown' is not assignable to type 'string'.
