Additional information:
This has only been observed when using our in-house scalar type DateTime, as input argument. I haven't tried with other custom scalar types.

This is the query:

{
  statistics(from: "2019-11-01T00:00:00Z"){
    data{
      date
      value
    }
  }
}

It happens even if I set the date as a variable in the variables field.

What happens:
Altair throws an exception (the one above) when opening or loading from history, and deletes all text in whichever field that contains the DateTime string. So if the string is in variables, everything in varibles is deleted and ditto for the query field.
Addiotionally, the history says "Invalid Date" for queries containing dates. The date is not invalid in our system, and the system accepts it when the query is fired.

I hope that was enough to troubleshoot.
Happy debugging. :)

Hey, this only happens with the history?

Hey, this only happens with the history?

It actually happens at start up, but I guess it's because it tries to read the type from history.

The history entries are not usable if they have a date (they just say Invalid Date), and can't be loaded.

This looks to be the same error reported in #1052. Unfortunately it is not enough information to debug it.

A couple of questions that should help:

• You are using the regular browser extension of Altair right?
• Does it happen everytime you start Altair?
• Is Altair usable after it happens?
• If Altair works, could you try closing the windows one after the other, and restarting Altair after closing each one to see if the error still occurs?

Considering the source of the error (ngx-codemirror), this component is used in 7 places (environment manager, pre request editor, query editor, query result, settings, subscription connection params, variables editor). This means the source of the error has to be coming from one or more of these places. Does any of them sound like the likely cause of the error?
