Summary
The UI will prevent you from creating properties with names that contain / or \, but it is possible to circumvent these checks. Once properties are named as such, trying to access, edit, or delete them will result in errors.
Solution
Use ectool to edit the property, and contain the property name with [].
Examples
Property bar
under project foo
was accidentally changed to ba/r
, and now it can’t be accessed, edited, or deleted through the UI. To change its name back to bar, run the following command:
ectool modifyProperty ``"/projects/test/[ba/r]" --newName ``"bar" |
