    Hi nkdogra90

    You say youre using jdbc connection string to connect to SQL DB, but all relational database management systems use SQL.
    What is the vendor.....Oracle? MS SQL SERVER, IBM DB2? From what ive read trying to escape may differ between vendors. They all use ANSI standard SQL, but they all include propietary differences.

    I couldnt see the embedded image at all to indicate what the error response was. Could you please paste in the error response message if you answer this message? Just remove the hostname details (no one will be able to hack without that) but include password when you post the error....i need to see the whole error text please if possible.

If the tool has limitation with special characters then either you want to change password with supported characters or open a ticket with customer care.

Mean while you may check with groovy script.
