Thanks very much for this clue. I’ve gotten to the point in cbor.me that I see a bunch of output like \x83\x02Nrequest_status\x83\x01...
Would you mind letting me know, what am I looking at here? Is it ascii mixed with other stuff? and how do I decode it? Many thanks!
Based on this topic: Decode canister response to query request - #2 by chenyan
I’m pretty sure you mean the response needs to be decoded by didc
. Is that correct?
But it’s still rather confusing:
- Is it really part of the process to ‘find and replace’
\x
with\
, to end up with a blob? - What part of the overal response is to be decoded by
didc
? The whole thing? Everthing after theDIDL
? - I’m always getting this error no matter all the permutations I experiment with:
Error: Candid parser error: Unknown excape character b at 180..182
Can you please provide some more details about what you mean by “and decode”?
Thank you
