CSV wrongly encoded

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 4

Hi,

 

I have a flow that downloads all the csv files located on an ftp server to a sharepoint online document library. It is based on 'Ftp list files', 'Ftp get file content' and 'SP create file'. Everything works fine, apart from the target files content encoding. All accented characters and LFCR end up wrongly encoded. Anyone having the same issue?

    Hi Baz,

     

    May I know how the characters and LFCR are shown in SharePoint? Please take some screenshots. Also try to create some new csv files to test if the issue is file-specific.

     

    Regards,

    Mona Li

    Hi MonaLi,
     
    LFCR characters were initially shown as litteral \n\r (as if they had been escaped). Now the problem seems to be solved.
    Regarding the accents issue, here is how a 'é' shows within the CSV file: '�'.
    It does this with various csv files, all in French though.

     

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Hans-Martin,

     

    Yes, it is solved for me now. By doing nothing but wait for this to be cleared.
