Encoding/Charset UTF-8 Error when changing a DataSetRow per API

Developer Experience

Hello,

I have problems with the german language encoding. When I am changing the DataSetRow value the “ä, ö, ü, and ß” are replace by question marks.

If this is my body:
dataSetColumnId_8=üüüüüüü

The result on the Xibo server is

I also set the header (in Java) like this so it should work:

con.setRequestProperty(“Content-Type”, “application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8”);

Does somebody know how to solve this problem. And is it XIBO related is there some configuration in xibo for the encoding. I really could not find anything?

Hope someone can help me. Thank you in advanced!

I’m not sure why would that be an issue, I assume that if you enter the ü character in the cms itself or import .csv/json with them it is correctly displays in web ui and players?

If I do the edit like this:

Then the values are correctly displayed in CMS.

Could we perhaps see a snippet of the code that you’re using?
