        const [activeindex, setActiveindex] = React.useState<string>();
        return (
            items.map((item: any) => {

        const toggleDrawing = React.useCallback(async (itemId: string) => {
            if (isDrawing && editableItemId === itemId) {
                cancelDrawing();
            } else if (isDrawing) {
                cancelDrawing();
                setEditableItemId(itemId);
            } else {
                setEditableWorkAreaId(itemId);
            }

try this way ;)

const toggleDrawing = React.useCallback(async (itemId: string | undefined) => {
    if (isDrawing && editableItemId === itemId) {
        cancelDrawing();
    } else if (isDrawing) {
        cancelDrawing();
        setEditableItemId(itemId);
    } else {
        setEditableWorkAreaId(itemId);
    }
   },[])

You interface defines itemId?: string; and a string or undefined but the function call needs a string.

Use either

if (itemId) {
  toggleDrawing(itemId);
}

or

toggleDrawing(itemId || '');

or

toggleDrawing(itemId as string);
