Frequently Asked Questions

I'm encountering an XMLSyntaxError when creating a Guard object from a RAIL specification. What should I do?​

Make sure that you are escaping the & character in your RAIL specification. The & character has a special meaning in XML, and so you need to escape it with &. For example, if you have a prompt like this:

<prompt>
    This is a prompt with an & character.
</prompt>

You need to escape the & character like this:

<prompt>
    This is a prompt with an &amp; character.
</prompt>
