Escaping ~ from restful metadata search

We are currently setting up an Openkm 6.3.3 CE server and are filling it with our documents and metadata.
One of our metadata fields contain a ~ searching for metadata contained in other fields not containing a ~ work fine.
But all tries to escape the ~ from the search failed. We currently tried the following combinations:
Code: Select all
http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/services/rest/search/find?property=okp:document.name=Value\~Containing&domain=1
http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/services/rest/search/find?property=okp:document.name=Value\\~Containing&domain=1
http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/services/rest/search/find?property=okp:document.name=Value\\\\~Containing&domain=1
http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/services/rest/search/find?property=okp:document.name="Value~Containing"&domain=1
http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/services/rest/search/find?property=okp:document.name='Value~Containing'&domain=1
http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/services/rest/search/find?property=okp:document.name="Value\~Containing"&domain=1
http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/services/rest/search/find?property=okp:document.name="Value\\~Containing"&domain=1
For the trial requests we used Postman, all requests are GET with the corresponding Authorization headers and Accept application/json.
Does anyone know what i could possibly change to get this to work?

You should encode the value

Thanks for the advice, but sadly it didn't work. We had to remove all ~ from the metadata and from the given searches to make it work.

Probably the character " should not be set in the url. An the word value it does not seems a real value "Value\\~Containing"
