Hi Darsh,

Good day, have you tried working with expression libraries?

Basically, you can create your own method for escaping special characters

Here’s an example

canvas_2022_04_20.slp (12.8 KB)
helper.expr (154 Bytes)

Thanks,
EmEm

    Sorry, it’s a bit awkward. The Snap will save input documents as they are received and then write them to a file when the pipeline finishes. So, you need to start up the ultra task, send a few requests so that they are recorded by the snap, and then disable the task so that the documents can be saved to the file. Now that the file has been written, validations should be able to read it and produce data. Once you get a good amount of saved documents, you can put the snap in ‘Replay-Only’ mode so that the next time you enable the ultra task, the already saved documents are not overwritten.
