Cause
You need to display comma separated alphanumeric values as text string in your reports. For example, you want the following to display as Portland,Oregon in your report data: paramCity=Portland,Oregon
Resolution
All non alphanumeric (reserved) characters should be passed with their escaped value. Our engine is capable of reading and displaying these values properly.
Instead of passing “paramCity=Portland,Oregon”, send “paramCity=Portland%2COregon” (%2C is the escaped value of a comma).
More Information
There are quite a few characters that are considered “reserved” characters, and should always be escaped if you want the text value to be used in your report data.
Below is a list of these reserved characters and their escape values.
