Steps:
my table is built and has the data I am expecting in it:


The only problem is that the first column is supposed to read "03/M, 0" and instead it is "03 M 0". Why are the special characters in the string being filtered out? Removing the startCase function from the mapped value doesn't help. The data is showing as correct in the JSON explorer.

Retool cloud, new table component
