I am passing below URL for account aggregation but it keeps on giving illegal character error:

http://someurl/entry/MQG_CTM_PeoplePermission_SupportGroups?fields=values(Remedy%20Login%20ID,Permission%20Group,Support%20Organization,Support%20Group%20Name,FunctionalRoleAlias)&q='Status'="Enabled"%20AND%20'Permission%20Group%20ID'%20!=%20"20000"

I am getting below error :

Caused by: sailpoint.connector.ConnectorException: Illegal character in query at index 230

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character in query at index 230

Caused by: java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in query at index 230

Hi @ypal55955,

Can you please give us some more context about the call you are making? Is this a trigger or a REST API. If a REST API, what version? Also, can you send the complete request body?

You are most likely receiving this error because there is a character in the URL you passed that must be URL encoded. Your best bet is to encode all of the special characters in your URL using this chart using http://vermontdatabase.com/cloudwriter/url_encoding.htm. I see you already did that for the space character by using %20.

3

Possibly the single quotes (replace with %27) and double quotes (%22) ?

4

It is a GET request REST API call and there is nothing in the request body.

5

Can you point me to the exact endpoint in the documentation?

The webservice connector should handle encoding of character ootb. I know there was some recent bug because of new functionality added but when I am writing this it should work fine in sandbox without manual encoding. Please provide the url without encoding and see how it works.
