Description

Steps to reproduce:

Create a clerk client with the latest beta version (1.0.0-beta-v5.18) and get an organization.

import { createClerkClient } from '@clerk/backend' 

const clerk = createClerkClient({
  secretKey: env.CLERK_SECRET_KEY,
})

const org = await ctx.clerk.organizations.getOrganization({ 
  organizationId: 'org_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',  
})

Expected behavior:

Get back org correctly

Actual behavior:

It throws an error with Invalid URL string.

I tried to hunt it down and maybe found the problem:

joinPaths is responsible to remove double path joiners (when is it ever not a slash?):

Now the args of joinPaths look something like this: ["https://api.clerk.com", "v1", "/organizations/org_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"]

Unfortunately, the protocol contains a double slash as well and the result of url is:

https:/api.clerk.com/v1/organizations/org_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Notice the https:/. new URL will throw with this input
