Questions

Unable to find Json.toBase64() method mentioned in the migration guide

Use the following example code to convert a Base64URL to Base64 encoder.
String base64url = someJsonObject.getString("base64encodedElement")
String base64 = Json.toBase64(base64url);

Version

Which version(s) did you encounter this bug ? 4.1.0

@mansiag I'll update the docs. We planned to introduce such a method but in the end it was discussed that this method could introduce confusion, so instead I'll document how to manually convert from base64url to base64 by adding the code:

base64urlString
  .replace('-', '+')
  .replace('_', '/');

As, this converts data between the 2 encoding formats.
