Issue/Introduction



Are there any special considerations that need to be given when using upper ASCII characters such as backslashes and parenthesis?

Environment

Release:
Component: ACSAAS

Resolution

The following common upper ASCII characters can be used without any special consideration:
!@$^*()+-{}[]|<>,.?/'


The following characters need special consideration when used with the "contains" operator as they are considered wild cards:
%t%g will pull "tag" and "telecommuting"
_t_g will pull "tag" and "tug"


The following characters need to be URL encoded:
#%23
&%26


The following characters need to be escaped with a \:
\\\
"\"
