How to escape double quotes in a JSON?

[Smith Johnson]

Hi community,

I have the following field where the user can insert any character. For example:

Then, behind the scenes once the form is submitted, a script include makes a REST API call.
However, the double quotes that the user inserted make the integration fail.

The request body looks like this:

Any ideas on how to solve this??

Thank you in advance,

Smith.

Hi,

if you are using variable substitution in rest message then you can use this method

setStringParameterNoEscape();

Hi,

First, I have something like this (where "vs_description" is the name of the field).

var description=String(variables.vs_description);

Then, as you said I am using the NoEscape method to substitute the "description" variable in the rest message:

wsObject.setStringParameterNoEscape("description", description);
