Quotation character (") gets removed on download

We have an Android project which uses Crowdin for translations, the file containing the strings is a standard android project strings.xml. We surround each string with quotation marks so we don’t need to escape special characters. This works fine when downloading the strings in almost all cases.

There are a few of strings in our project that are quite long and that need a couple of empty lines in between sentences, it might look like this in our strings.xml:

<string name="some_string">"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua."</string>

But when we download the strings with crowdin cli it will remove the quotation marks like so:

<string name="some_string">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</string>

This forces us to re-add them locally each time. Is this a bug or Is there a way to make it not remove the quotations?

Hi @rickard.zettervall ,

I did not manage to reproduce the same behavior from our side. Is there any chance you could share with us the link to the project, the source file, and your configuration file for CLI to support@crowdin.com?
