How do I convert a typescript enum value to string

Question

I have an enum in typscript. I need to convert the value of the enum to string so that I can pass this to an api endpoint. How do I do this? Thanks.

enum RecordStatus {
    CancelledClosed = 102830004,
    Completed = 102830003,
    InProgress = 102830002,
    ShoppingCart = 102830005,
    Submitted = 102830001,
    Unordered = 102830000
}

example:

var submittedStrValue = RecordStatus.Submitted // I want to get "10283001" (note the string value rather than the int value.

Ok, I thought it would require doing something like RecordStatus[RecordStatus.Submitted]. — Jeffrey Juarez

@JeffreyJuarez That is if you want to get the string Submitted. See typescriptlang.org/play/… — Ruan Mendes

You can just use RecordStatus.Submitted.toString().

You could always use string enums too, especially if you're going to always want to use the string value, and you're going to explicitly assign a value to each enum.
