Hi PedroCSeq ,

Thanks for using Fabric Community.
I can some methods to the JSON deserialization error you're encountering in Fabric Data Factory.

These steps might help:

1. Validate JSON Format:

  • Manually: Inspect a sample of the response from the API using tools like Postman or a browser.
  • Review Structure: Make sure it adheres to JSON syntax rules. You can use a JSON validator online or in your code.


2. Address Unexpected Characters:

  • Trim Leading/Trailing Characters: Remove any extra whitespace or characters before the first curly brace.
  • Check Data: Ensure the response doesn't contain HTML elements or other non-JSON content.


Hope this is helpful. Please let me know incase of further queries.
