Hey guys having something weird happen. Have text generated from OpenAI into a text column. I have an action to copy it to the clipboard, but for some reason it’s copying it and formatting it as URL with percentages etc, even though when I view in the table it looks like normal text. Any idea why this is happening?
Here’s what the text looks like when copy/pasted:
%20towards%20financial%20independence,%20personal%20growth,%20and%20work-life%20balance.
Does the URL contain spaces?
%20 is what spaces are replaced with when a link is URLencoded.
It’s exactly what I pasted. But in the table, it looks like normal text but the column is formatted just as plain text. When I display it, it displays normal.

mmm, not exactly sure what’s going on there. Something’s causing it to be treated like a URL. I notice that the string starts with usp:. What happens if you remove that before you copy/paste it?
That’s just part of the AI output. What’s weird is its literally only happening on this row and just started happening randomly.
yeah, I was just wondering if that prefix might be causing it to be interpreted as a hyperlink - which is why I suggested to see if removing it would change anything.
Seeing it with some other ai output as well. Is there a way I can add a formatted to a copy action? So when you paste it’s plain text?
I guess you could try running it through a Decode Text column (set the encoding as url), and then use the decoded version in the copy to clipboard action. That might work.
Yea but the weird thing is in your example the text column displays it normally, but when i copy and paste it, it has the weird url formatting:
Yeah, I’m not sure. I know there was an editor bug recently related to spaces, but I’m pretty sure that was fixed.
Did you try my decoding suggestion?
Yes did not work 
I assume this is a result of an OpenAI action? If you use a column instead of an action does it help?
