Replace Illegal XML Characters in REST API Responses
Text fields in Agility can contain control characters that aren't valid in the XML 1.0 specification, such as vertical tab or form feed characters. Previously, the REST API encoded these characters as illegal character references, which caused standard, conforming XML parsers to reject the response.
Add the replaceIllegalChars=true query parameter to a REST API request to replace these characters with the Unicode replacement character (U+FFFD) instead, so the response parses correctly in standard XML parsers.
What changed:
- The REST API accepts a new optional query parameter:
?replaceIllegalChars=true. - When set to
true, illegal control characters (all control characters other than tab, newline, and carriage return) are replaced with U+FFFD. - If any characters are replaced, the containing XML element includes a
replacedIllegalChars="true"attribute.
Fixes
Process Tab on the Team Details Page
Resolved an issue where the Process tab on the Team Details page became unresponsive after you switched to another tab, such as Details or History, and back. The Process tab now updates correctly when you switch between tabs.
Release Forecasting Page Error
Resolved an issue where the Release Forecasting page displayed an "Invalid parameter value. Parameter name: optimistic" error after you entered forecast criteria and clicked Go. The Release Forecasting page now loads forecast results correctly.
