Are you passing the cursor back to the API in query parameter?

I wonder if it would always urlencode input values :thinking_face:

<@U069EMNRPA4> Yes I am passing it in query parameters
Is there a way to resolve this issue in airbyte ui?

Honestly, not sure. I’d assume either there is a jinja macro already, or we could make one to tell a specific variable to not get urlencoded.

<@U069EMNRPA4> I tried some jinja filter they didn’t work,
I assume we need to make new one
I have no idea about how to make one,
So is it possible to do this or not?
