Sitecore Headless with Next.js: convert a string into a Sitecore data type

In Next.js, we can convert a string into a Sitecore data type. Sitecore typically stores data in fields with specific data types such as Single-Line Text, Rich Text, Date, Boolean, etc.

Identify the Sitecore field type and use the appropriate data type in your Next.js code to represent the Sitecore field.

interface SitecoreField {
  value: string;
  type: string; // This can be a Sitecore-specific type identifier
}

function convertToSitecoreField(value: string): SitecoreField {
    return {
      value,
      type: "Date",
    };
}
const dateString = '2023-07-06';
const sitecoreDate = convertToSitecoreField(dateString);
