How to handle special characters in Fetch XML while using Web API in JavaScript

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Parth Bhaidani 65

Hi Experts, 

How can we handle special characters like &, ', etc., while retrieving records using WebAPI in JavaScript.

I tried using encodeURI and encodeURIComponents, but everything fails with the below error.

"No other query options are supported when a SavedQuery, UserQuery, or FetchXml parameter is provided"

Please help me with the issue.

    Could you share the code so that we could see if we can spot any issues with Fetch or the request?

    Its a two step process to handle special symbols in fetch xml with WEB API.

    1. Use html encoding on the filter value.

    2. Use url encoding for entire fetch xml.
