Hi there, we have a problem with unicode support on Appian cloud at two customers. A user pastes a emoji into a text field which is saved to datastore in process. The "Write to datastore" node breaks. After digging a bit I found out that MySQL is not configured to handle unicode correctly. The default charsets in MySQL are not able to save 4-byte characters. Is there anyone having a similar problem?

Did you ever get a workaround that could be configured DB side? We suffer from this weekly and putting strip widths before every write to datastore is not an option as there would be literally hundreds. We manually 'fix' each one manually at the moment!
