Error reading JSON to Collection: Bad JSON escape sequence: \R. Path '', line 1, position 17.

[DeborahParfitt]

Hello Team

I am trying to read a JSON object to Collection using the Utility - JSON object  and get the following error message

Internal : Could not execute code stage because exception thrown by code stage: Bad JSON escape sequence: \R. Path '', line 1, position 17.

Completely new to this JSON functionality. However I  understand the records I'm reading in are JSON nested objects. Can someone help to explain what the error means and how to rectify.

Many thanks

Debbie

Hi Debbie,

if \R is part of a JSON string, this isn't a valid JSON string. \ is a JSON escape sequence and the deserializer tries to interpret the following character. Like \n gives you a new line.
If the result should be \R you have to double-escapce the \. The JSON value should look like \\R
