Unicode characters in fixed parameter

Hi Dojo,

We have a connector type options=";unicode" and a fixed parameter:


the result we see in the element is this:

could someone explain to me why we see Unicode characters instead of the value? and is there something we could do to overcome this?

It is a new element (so it's not some saved parameter value), we tested this is dataminer 10.4.0 and 10.5.5 , the result is the same.

Eventually we found multiple options to work around it, for example making it a param of type read and defining a default value or in our case defining the value in the URL attribute in the session directly
please find the examples here:

Hi Timothy, I have the same issue, I'm trying to send fixed data in an HTTP POST request. This parameter is referenced in HTTP.Session.Connection.Request.Data. Has this been solved in the software or have you been able to find a workaround? Thanks.

Hi Martin, I just added another answer as i can't add pictures in comments but it contains 2 workarounds you can use
