When using the API to create a new resource, the new  Account password is incorrectly applied when it contains the '+' (plus) symbol.

Background:
I am attempting to populate a large number of artefacts into our PMP solution.

As you'd expect, some of the account's passwords have special characters.   As I am running though the resources and adding them to the PMP Application I have found that whilst the API correctly creates the resource and it's associated account(s), the password has been applied incorrectly.

I have created a new password policy (LocalAdmin) to confirm that the password I am attempting to apply can be applied manually.  So my example json for the API:

         INPUT_DATA={
         "operation":{
         "Details":{
         "RESOURCENAME":"WS01",
         "ACCOUNTNAME":"Administrator",
         "RESOURCETYPE":"Windows",
         "PASSWORD":"lekfmt+FREDDY+91",
         "NOTES":"Testing API",
         "RESOURCEPASSWORDPOLICY":"Strong",
         "ACCOUNTPASSWORDPOLICY":"LocalAdmin",
         "RESOURCECUSTOMFIELD":[
            {
               "CUSTOMLABEL":"Secure Resource",
               "CUSTOMVALUE":"YES"
            }
         ],
    "ACCOUNTCUSTOMFIELD":[
            {
               "CUSTOMLABEL":"Team",
               "CUSTOMVALUE":"Testing"
            }
         ]
      }
   }
}


Symptom:

Within PMP, the new account for WS01 is created with an Account called 'Administrator'.  Unfortunately, the Password is applied with with '+' characters removed.

Required Password:    lekfmt+FREDDY+91
Applied Password:    lekfmt FREDDY 91


Request:
Could you please explain how I can use/escape passwords with special characters when attempting to apply them into PMP?


Many thanks.
