HTML character codes coming through for special characters in sheet names

Example below "%2F" coming through when OCR/parameters extraction reads forward slash:

I'm not sure if this occurs on other codes/characters.

Hi Aaron,

 

 

Thank you for your post. 

 

How was the file uploaded, were this individual files?  I suspect that it is one PDF file with multiple sheets.

 

Do you happen to have a sample file you can provide for review?  If so, please send it to me at frederick.regala@autodesk.com.

I tried two things:  upload Revit file to “Project Files,” and upload directly to “Plans.” The Revit file I used was the basic sample project that ships with Revit (see image below).  When I uploaded the Revit file to Project Files, plan views weren’t generated except they are available when browsing the file itself.  Those views correctly list the forward-slash.

 

However, when I uploaded the RVT to Plans, the sheets generated contained the HTML code:

Hello Everyone,

 

 

As an update.  This issue has been resolved.  It will be included in the next update of BIM 360 Docs which will take place in the coming week or two.

Hello Everyone!

 

 

Just to close the loop on this issue.  An update to Docs was pushed out last night which included the solutiion for this issue.

 

Sheet names with forward slash from Revit is extracted in Docs with the forward slash appearing as expected.

 

I verified this moments ago.

 

 

Thank you !
