GET DATA On AGI

Hi,

When using GET DATA in an AGI it seems that the # key ends the input. So if say I want the user to input 123#456 the system will return 123. I did not see this in the documentation. Is this a bug, lack of documentation or do I
have a bug in my AGI?

TIA.

  • I believe that # in the default terminator for GET DATA and I don’t think that can be disabled. But I’m not a 100% as I’ve always used # as the terminator.

  • I thought one of the arguments to the read command was the terminator, is that the command you have in your agi?
