Issue/Introduction

After registering the JSON file and importing the data to registered tables, getting an error while exporting the data and generating the file

We have got the below error:
“com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParseException: Invalid UTF-8 start byte 0xa0
at [Source: C:\ProgramData\CA\CA Test Data Manager Portal\objects\projects_11893\versions_11894\Customer_Relation_Response\uploadedschema\(1)1118129852-customer-relation-response.json; line: 411, column: 47]
at com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser._constructError(JsonParser.java:1702) “

 

Environment

All supported TDM releases.

Cause

The input file had special characters in it.  Since the input file is not in UTF-8 format of data, hence are getting an error.

Resolution

Remove the special characters from the file or make sure the file which you are using is UTF-8 format data.
