Transifex translation problem - using colons

I was testing out some translations using the api and I came across this challenge.

https://www.transifex.com/api/2/project/transifex/resource/core/translation/fr_FR/strings/?details&key=Hello+we+are+here%3A+Embedding+Cool+stuff

Source string being Hello we are here: Embedding Cool stuff

If there is a colon in the source key, it seems to have issues finding the translation.

Anyone else experienced this? Any workarounds found?

Please let me know. Thanks!

Tom

Hi @tom12c,

Can you please escape the colon character in your API call and try again?

The key in the API endpoint should look like this:

 Hello we are here\: Embedding Cool stuff

Please let me know if you need further assistance.
