Definitelytyped: [@types/yup] - Type 'Ref' is not assignable to type 'string'

• [x] I tried using the @types/yup package and had problems.
• [ ] I tried using the latest stable version of tsc. (I'm using v3.3) https://www.npmjs.com/package/typescript

The latest version (0.26.19) made my CD pipeline crash with the following error :
TS2322: Type 'Ref' is not assignable to type 'string'.

I'm guessing it comes from the latest version because the previous one was released 5 days ago and I did several pipelines since then that went fine

Here is the the line in my code that triggers this:

confirmPassword: yup.string().oneOf([yup.ref("password"), null], passwordMismatch[lang])

I think this error shouldn't be thrown, as the Yup docs mention that .ref is expecting a string parameter

@guillaumepn

Yes, agreed that should work.

With one little addition given that you are using null in oneOf() as well. So I changed the definition to include nullable() like this:

confirmPassword: yup.string().nullable().oneOf([yup.ref("password"), null]),

Thanks!
