What This Adds In Cloud Code

• Easy base64 encoding without manual buffer handling.
• Useful for API headers and encoded payload fields.
• Consistent output via strict base64 encoding.

Quick Start

const btoa = require('btoa');
const encoded = btoa('my-value');

API

Function	Params	Returns	Notes
btoa(data)	data: string	string	Callable default export. Returns strict base64 string; empty string on failure.

Practical Example

const btoa = require('btoa');
const authHeader = `Basic ${btoa(`${clientId}:${clientSecret}`)}`;

Failure Modes & Gotchas

• Encoding failure returns ''.
• Module is callable directly (btoa(data)), no .encode wrapper needed.
• Do not store raw secrets in logs when building auth headers.
