It looks like Meltano may have an issue with certain characters. I've run into this before in the past as well. I tried setting a password for a config that contains characters like * ! and % for a tap and it returned "event not found"
Is there a list of characters that cannot be used?

Are you setting the password using
meltano config
??
g
So far after checking:
! @ # $ % ^ & * - ?
These characters do not work:
! & $
Yes I am

Thanks, @gunnar. Taking a look now…

Of course! Let me know if there is anyway I can help
e
Is this a known issue?
a
At least in the case of
!
and
$
, the bash terminal is intercepting your text before passing it to meltano. I added some comments here: https://gitlab.com/meltano/meltano/-/issues/2744#note_569197016
@gunnar - I posted this also to the issue but can you try again using single quotes? Per: linux - How to pass arguments with special characters to call shell script - Stack Overflow

Sorry for the delay, that worked @aaronsteers!! Still getting the hang of interacting with the Meltano community in the right way haha. I'll make sure to check the issue board prior to posting in the future. Thanks for the help!
