suneditor-react Typescript getContent is not working

Question

I'm using suneditor-react with typescript. I want to get the content of the editor to create a PDF. But the problem is when I try to access a ref of the SunEditor, I got the following error

Property 'ref' does not exist on type 'IntrinsicAttributes & SunEditorReactProps & { children?: ReactNode; }'. 

Further, I couldn't find a getContents() prop as well in the SunEditorReactProps. But it is in thier example page.

Please give your ideas.

});
