Webhook Data Corruption

Cloud
1

We have a webhook that publishes data to a Google Sheet. This data is base85 encoded binary blobs. As a result, the sequence {{ is valid and necessary. However, we are noticing that somewhere between the event arriving in Particle Console and the data being published in the Google Sheet, the character sequence “{{” is stripped from the data.

For instance, if we send only “{{” in an event, the integration generates the following:

{
  "name": "Sfin-5d0036001750483553353920-test_msg",
  "data": "{{",
  "published_at": "2022-07-20T06:23:11.363Z",
  "coreid": "[redacted]",
  "userid": "[redacted]",
  "version": 0,
  "public": false,
  "productID": [redacted]
}

In the Google AppSheet, we process the request, then do the following:

return ContentService
          .createTextOutput(JSON.stringify({"result":"success", "row": nextRow, "content": e}))
          .setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON);

Particle indicates the return data as such:

Note that the “data” field in the response is blank.

Is there a way to avoid this by reconfiguring the Particle integration? If not, how can we easily escape the “{{” sequence?
