How to escape special character in azure slq server conncetion string password?
Hello, my connection string has a password with special character that starts with ^******* and I am having issue on how to escape in upsetting Json file.
Please help needed.
Hi Kadeabdul,
To escape special characters, including the ^ (caret) symbol, in an Azure SQL Server connection string password within a JSON file, you can use a backslash (\) before the special character. Here's an example:
Original password: ^********
Escaped password: \^********
JSON Escape Online Tool | LambdaTestBy adding a backslash (\) before the caret (^), you can ensure that the special character is properly escaped and will be correctly interpreted in the JSON file.
Don't forget to update your connection string in the JSON file by replacing the original password with the escaped password.
