I face the same issue when the user enters the special character in the remarks. (attached the sample remarks below)

The process runs successfully when using Write to Data Store Entity Smart Service.

The process fails with an error when using the Write to Multiple Data Store Entities Smart Service (attached is the error from Tomcat logs), but the data is saved in the DB.

Please let me know if anyone encounter the same error with Multiple Data Store Entities?

Hi, I faced this issue in our project. We stored the emoji to our database successfully. And used this data as the parameter of the start process model, has the same issue. I try to convert the emoji field to unicode type used the code() function. And the parameter can pass the start process model successfully. Then use the joinarray(char(emoji)) function to convert it to emoji text.

This does not help. We need all the gory details. Code snippets and everything you can provide.

I did a podcast episode on how to get great answers here: appian.rocks/.../

INTernally, your emojis are coded as a series of characters. When these caracthers are parsed to XML it generates an error because contains some character that breaks the structure of the xml.

Try putting your emojis (or the full text), for example between CDATA[[], or scape the text in order to avoid the XML error

I didn't get you sir, could please elaborate what exactly we need to do

So the problem is related with the fact that the emojis contains special characters that breaks the XML.

Try scaping those emojis in the integration...

Yeah it's working without emojis

Does it work without emojis? Maybe the xml is being "broken" by an special character included when you write some of them
