Accents in SKU / Name - Not decoded

[jesusvalle]

Greetings. I've noticed that when i request and get the items from a report listing (for example, merchant report), some sku's have accents in it, but not decoded. Example:

"Champú anticaspa" --> "Champ� anticaspa".

In seller central it's displayed properly. This it's happening with product-names too when i get merchant report items.

I've tried decoding the XML in my javascript, but without results.

Thanks so much.

What's the request you're making against amazon? It is a known issue we encountered in flat files against the charset, not xmls (xml uses UTF8). Try using the __RAW__ option to get the Buffer object,that you can save with fs.writeFile and help us solve the issue.

In my file, I'm calling search function like this:

.search({
                    Action: 'GetReport',
                    MWSAuthToken: this.amzAccountData.MWSAuthToken,
                    ReportId: requestedReportId,
                    SellerId: this.amzAccountData.sellerId,
                    Version: '2009-01-01',
                    // __RAW__: true
                    __CHARSET__: 'ISO-8859-1'
                })

And in amazonMwsResource, i only decode (not encode) the bufferString with the charset sended by param.

 if (userOptions.userCharset && userOptions.userCharset.length > 0) {
                    debug('Inside user Charset option');
                    charset = userOptions.userCharset;
                    try {
                        responseString = iconv.decode(bufferString, charset);
                    } catch (Exception) {
                        debug('Exception iconv ', Exception);
                        return callback.call(self, new Error.AmazonMwsAPIError({
                            message: 'Failed to parse response received from the AmazonMws API',
                            StatusCode: statusCode || 'unknown'
                        }), null);
                    }
                } else {
                    responseString = bufferString.toString();
                }

Decoding to ISO-8859-1, now i can see all the accents in my report result.
