Overview

This behavior controls whether DryvIQ can change the names of folders and files that don't comply with the destination platform’s rules for unsupported characters. By default, this behavior is turned on for the job. DryvIQ will rename a file or folder instead of flagging it for manual remediation and preventing it from being transferred. You can choose between two options for how you want the content to be renamed. Turn the toggle off if you prefer DryvIQ not to rename items with unsupported characters. When this behavior is off for a job, files and folders with unsupported characters will be flagged for manual remediation. 

Replace with Underscore

This option replaces invalid characters with underscores. For example, if DryvIQ encounters a file named "Congrats!.txt" during a transfer to a platform that doesn’t support exclamation marks in file names, DryvIQ will rename the file to "Congrats_.txt" on the destination.

Encode Invalid Character

This option encodes invalid characters instead of replacing them with an underscore. The UTF8 bytes for invalid characters are used and converted to a hex string. For example, a file named "123白雜.txt" would be converted to "123E799BDE99B9CE8.txt."
