Re: Data visualizer error

 

Hi Marko,

thanks for the screenshot. If you look closely there is a dollar sign $ in
the org unit uid.

The requirements for uids are:

- exactly 11 characters
- numbers and upper/lowercase letters (no special characters)
- starting with letter

So likely these uids have been generated externally. The reasons why we are
a bit strict on this issue is that we want to keep the uids as valid
database column names and especially valid XML element names / JSON
attributes in order to be better positioned for future development of
exchange formats.

regards,

Lars
