"Detected unicode characters, removed" when importing issues #859

Open jg223fp opened 1 year ago

jg223fp commented 1 year ago

When trying to import issues assigned to users that contains \ in the username, the terminal reports: "Detected unicode characters, removed" The result is that everything after the \ is removed in the username.

user.txt: JIRAUSER12600=CORP\u084699

issue.json: { "ReferenceName": "System.AssignedTo", "Value": "CORP\u084699" }

Result on Azure: Assigned ´To: CORP

If you are able to build the project yourself, you can comment out the following lines to disable the unicode character removal, but this might cause other data to render weirdly: https://github.com/solidify/jira-azuredevops-migrator/blob/e023e826fd44f3613e329b7645cd2a4ce318b49b/src/WorkItemMigrator/Migration.WIContract/WiItemProvider.cs#L31C1-L35

Will have to think of a solution to this edge case.
