Order Line item creation via REST API failing when note on line item has notes in Spanish

Hello Clover Team,

We're facing an issue when one of our customers entered a note on an order line item in Spanish. The clover rest api is returning a 400 - Bad Request error for the POST api that adds a new line_item to an Order. For reference, the note text inserted by the customer is " Aguacate en rebanadas. Es para comer ahí ".

It works fine as soon as the last word 'ahí' is removed from the note, which seems to be the problem as it has a non-english character í . Is it that the apis will work only with English?

Could you please check why it is failing because of a text note and suggest how to fix this to allow any type of note from users ?

Thanks in advance.

I got the answer. We just have to set following thing in the header while making POST call:

'Transfer-Encoding' : 'chunked'

It will work if your payload contains non-ASCII characters.

Yes James. Actually we have NodeJS server which is middle tier between user and clover server. We are making POST call from our NodeJS server. Previously our header was having only 3 properties:

'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Content-Length': dataString.length,
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + authToken

It was giving status code 400 in the response if any field was containing spanish characters.

After setting 'Transfer-Encoding' : 'chunked' it worked for me.
