selenium-side-runner RegEx returning NULL

Question

Running a test to extract a verification code from text, executing in Selenium IDE it returns the code but when executing in selenium-side-runner I receive either d,d,d or null, have a look at the screen shots below

and from cli

strings used

return (${sms}.match(/\d+/g));
var regex = (/\d+/g); var sms = ${sms}; var code = sms.match(regex);return (code);
var regex = (/\d+/g); var sms = ${sms}; var code = sms.match(regex);return Number(code);
var regex = (/\d+/g); var sms = ${sms}; var code = sms.match(regex);var integer = parseInt(code, 10); return (integer);

Not sure what I am doing wrong, expected cli to return extracted code just like in IDE

So it looks like match() fails, but managed to get the code using replace()

string that worked: return (${sms}.replace(/[^0-9]+/g, ""));

GUI

CLI

var sms = "Your verification code is: 149599. Your code will expire in five minutes. Please do not reply."
console.log("SMS = " + sms)
var code = sms.replace(/[^0-9]+/g, "")
console.log("Code = " + code)
