Field quoting issue

[samplx]

I am using target-snowflake along with meltano and a local tap.

I had a case where a string field value which ends in a backslash “\” (U+005C), the loader process fails. The error is reported against another field in the row having an invalid format. Simply removing the character from the source data allowed the loader to succeed.

example meltano output:

I ran into this as well for a string that didn't otherwise need to be quoted ending in a backslash and absorbing the next columns value, leading the columns that followed to be incorrect.
