I’m trying to send my tweets that I draft and than publish with Typefully automatically to Telegram with Zapier.
But it says:
Bad Request: can't parse entities: Character '.' is reserved and must be escaped with the preceding '\'}
Also with ‘-’ . How to fix this?
My tweets will sometimes have things like that...
Try a formatter to edit your url string to include the escape characters.
Hi
Welcome to the Community.
The error with Telegram is due to special characters needing to be escaped, such as '.' and '-.' To resolve this, use Zapier's "Formatter" to replace these characters with their escaped versions before sending the message to Telegram. Add a "Formatter by Zapier" step, choose "Text" and "Replace," then input the tweet text and replace each unique character with its escaped version. Repeat this for each character, and use the formatter's output in the Telegram message step to avoid parsing errors.
