Handling
Characters in AEM Content Fragments

Question

Hi TeamWhen inputting a newline character (
) in any text field of an AEM content fragment, the JSON output shows \n instead of 
. This leads to inconsistencies, as the UI displays the newline correctly, but the JSON response doesn't reflect the intended formattingHow to address this any advise.Thanks in advance.

Hi @prashardan ,

Use multi-value rich text property for updating the special characters in the CF field.

Just enter the content in new line in CF field. In the JSON it appends /n on it's own when rich text property used like below -

Hope this helps

Thanks

To handle newline characters (
) properly in AEM Content Fragments, you can use a multi-value rich text property. When you enter content with line breaks in the Content Fragment field, AEM will automatically encode it with 
 for line breaks.Solution:1. Use Multi-value Rich Text Property: This allows AEM to handle newline characters properly when the content is entered in the field.2. Behavior: When using this property, you can enter the content with new lines, and AEM will ensure that 
 appears in the JSON output instead of \n.
