Searching GRIST API with backslashes in grant IDs fails
The funder 'Academy of Medical Sciences' use backslashes in their grant IDs. The GRIST API doesn't handle these well, and converts them to forward slashes in the response. E.g. CSF004\1001
Searching for this grant will not give a hit.
The appropriate URL encoding is '%255c'.
Searching for 'DTF008%255c1002' gives the error We're experiencing a problem with our grants search. Please try again later.
.
Could someone see if they can add 'Academy of Medical Sciences' grants successfully to a submission, and advise whether this is something that can be handled by the MSS, or whether the GRIST API needs fixing instead to handle backslashes.
Please note that searching by PI and adding the grant works correctly.
