Escaping special characters in Swagger UI

[Marko Kaar]

Hey,

We have a scenario in our project where we have special characters entered in the JSON body parameter of a PUT request in Swagger UI. We have set the content type as JSON and charset as UTF-8, however upon trying the request out we get the following error:

{ "StatusCode": "-1", "StatusMessage": "Unknown service error", "AdditionalInfo": "Unrecognized character escape '4' (code 52)\n at [Source: org.eclipse.jetty.server.HttpConnection$Input@1e949adb{HttpChannelOverHttp@2e42af8c{r=2,a=DISPATCHED,uri=OURURI},HttpConnection@1c13280e{FILLING},g=HttpGenerator{s=START},p=HttpParser{s=END,54 of 54}}; line: 3, column: 22] (through reference chain: Identity[\"Password\"])" }

Basically we have a "\" in the password field of our authentication service and it thinks we're trying to escape the following character.

Has anyone run into a similar issue or does anyone have any solutions for this?

Thanks in advance,

Marko

Hi Marko,

Can you provide a sample input and how it is actually transmitted over the wire (using the browser network log)?
