How to copy files with ^ character

Question

Hello!
I'm trying to copy files from Azure blob to the on-prem location and these files contain ^ characters.
I run one ADF pipeline to rename the files but I get this error:
Error code: UserErrorWildcardEscapedCharNotSupported
Failure type: User configuration issue
Details:
ErrorCode=UserErrorWildcardEscapedCharNotSupported,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=The escaped character ^. is not recognized for wildcard filter (*, ?). If you want to use ^ in file name, specify ^^ to escape. Index: 8.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.DataContracts,'
Any idea on how to solve this problem or what is the best way to copy the files to the on-prem side?

Answer 1

Hello @Salomon Henriquez ,
Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.
As we understand the ask here is copy the file with the name having the character "^" , please do let us know if its not accurate.
I tried this with the file 1^.paraquet file . I was able to copy this file use ADF copy activity . The trick is to use ^^ in the wildcard expression as shown below .

please do let me if you have any queries.
Thanks
Himanshu
