Description
Hello All,
I am using PNP Powershell 1.12 and Powershell 7.
I am doing the page transformation from 2013 on-premise to SharePoint online modern site. The SharePoint 2013 has custom page layouts. I am using the below commands to do the transformation.
$sp13Conn = Connect-PnPOnline https://xxx.yyy.org/ -TransformationOnPrem -CurrentCredentials -ReturnConnection
$spOnlineConn = Connect-PnPOnline https://xyz.sharepoint.com/sites/abc -Interactive -ReturnConnection
ConvertTo-PnPPage -Identity "Coin-Exchange-Program.aspx" -PublishingPage -TargetConnection $spOnlineConn -Connection $sp13Conn -PageLayoutMapping "C:\Temp\custompagelayoutmapping-modified.xml" -LogVerbose -LogType File -LogFolder "C:\Logs"
The above ConvertTo-PnpPage works for simple pages which has Text but its failing for the pages which has images or icons etc.
i do see Mutiple errors depending on the page I am transforming, one of the errors is
_'0x0A' is invalid within a JSON string. The string should be correctly escaped. Path: $ | LineNumber: 0 | BytePositionInLine: 83. at System.Text.Json.ThrowHelper.ReThrowWithPath(ReadStack& state, JsonReaderException ex)

Research direction
Start with the ConvertTo-PnPPage command and the attached Page-Transformation-Report and custompagelayoutmapping-modified.xml files. Reproduce the transformation from SharePoint 2013 using a page containing images or icons, then trace the reported PropertiesJson failure. Done means the affected pages transform successfully without the invalid JSON error.
