orderId variable during checkout code injection is incorrect.

Site URL: https://www.barboxsports.com

Hello, I am trying to create a system where when a customer checks out, a google sheet is automatically updated. I have created a dedicated server that simply needs to be called with an order number parameter which I have set up to occur at checkout, however the supplied orderId variable (supplied by Squarespace) is usually incorrect. I will check the console and see that the URL is being provided with an ID that is roughly 50 orders behind, however when I check the source the number seems to be correct (see my screenshot for an example of an orderId which should be 153 but orderId 107 was called). 

Occasionally the correct ID will be used and everything will work as intended. What's even stranger is the incorrect/old IDs are counting up. 

I'm not sure where I would post this to support so I figured I would ask here first. Any help would be much appreciated.

Can you use the low code tool Integromat to connect your store and listen to new order event then check the id there to see the potential issue

In case someone finds this question I'll give the solution I came to:

Ultimately the issue was solved by creating my own variable and setting it to the value of "{orderId}". The value was being calculated as an octal integer literal which is what was causing the change in numbers. I was using interpolation originally which is why I didn't think to wrap the initial value in a string. 

I just did made it a string and converted to a number. Fixed whatever weird octal conversion the above user said it was doing.

Javascript: 

Number("{orderId}")
