I am getting bellow error while pulling data from project online site through Odata feed . 

 

DataSource.Error: We couldn't parse OData response result. Error: Invalid JSON. A comma character ',' was expected in scope 'Object'. Every two elements in an array and properties of an object must be separated by commas.
Details:
DataSourceKind=OData

 

Any help is apreciated .

 

Thanks,

Raj

Exact same issue here.

Also the 'Projects' grid on PWA fails to load (browser console error: Cannot read property 'MultiValueSeparator' of null).

I was able though to locate some projects that might be causing the issue after applying some filters to the view until the view was loading again (Server settings > Manage views). Not sure yet what's exactly causing the issue, but will post it as soon as I have more news!

 

Best Regards,

Tim

 

 

EDIT: One of the projects contained some weird characters, after updating this value, both OData feed and Projects grid worked like a charm. Good luck with finding your Project (in case it's the Projects feed that causes the error of course!).
