[Archivesspace_Users_Group] EAD via API - character problem

[Kennedy, Nancy]

Here are the two versions.  One I get by using  the staff interface ‘export’ button.  The other via the api.

External Email - Exercise Caution
And maybe send the resulting XML or at least diffs of the two.
( Guessing that there might be a mismatch of file encoding and xml encoding declaration. )

Can you be more precise about what “directly from the archivesspace” means?  What page (URL) and control on the page you’re using to generate this?  I want to make sure it’s the same code path in both cases.

Also, when you say “locally,” do you just mean the script is running locally against the same ASpace instance, or is it a different ASpace instance from the one where you’re getting correct results?

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] EAD via API - character problem

Hi all –
Today I noticed that if I export an EAD with “Yin-Hsü” directly from the archivesspace, my EAD results carry through with the correct encoding.

But, when I export locally via the API, I end up with “Yin-Hs端”.   I’m using python 3.7.4, via local windows machine.  I’ve tried both archivessnake and just using requests, but I still end up with 端.

Suggestions?  Here’s what I’m doing via asnake:

export_options = '?include_daos=true&?include_unpublished=false&?numbered_cs=false'
for i in resource_ids:
ead = client.get(repo['uri']
                             +'/resource_descriptions/'+str(i)+'.xml'
                             + export_options).text
