tFileFetch: file upload is not using UTF-8 when creating the HTTP request

[Anonymous]

Hi all, 

I am facing an encoding issue when using tFileFetch to upload a file.

The filenames of the files to be uploaded contain German special characters like (ä, ö, ü) or special characters like [ ].

In the Advanced Settings Section, we set the charset = “UTF-8”, assuming this would solve our issue. But it did not.

As we understand, the charset set is used for the actual content of the file, not the parameters sent in the HTTP request like the filename (and maybe the filepath).

In Debug mode the log shows that the row1 is returning the character "ü" correctly but not when the HTTP Post request is created

I am not sure this is due to the default used in content-charset

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hello,

What's your API server? Rest? Are you able to use tfilefetch component to download your file from it with charset=UTF-8?

Please have "Print response to console" selected in the tFileFetch component.

Best regards
