Special Character Constraints

Updated on December 8th, 2022

The Curator system has some constraints that should be noted.

Curator follows the recommended practice of avoiding certain characters in file names. You can use any character in the current code page for a name, including Unicode characters, except for the following reserved characters: 

  •  < (less than)
  •  > (greater than)
  •  : (colon)
  •  " (double quote)
  • / (forward slash)
  •  \ (backslash)
  •  | (vertical bar or pipe)
  • ? (question mark)
  • * (asterisk)
  • # (hash)
  • $ (dollar)
  • @ (at symbol)
  • Trailing spaces at the end of filenames. (Example: 'Testfile .mp4')
