When using pac CLI to download a website, the following error happens when downloading a given record; this error also happens with the Power Platform toolset for Azure Devops.
Error

Other tools are able to download the file successfully:

@chris-nguyen-MSFT can you please try out the latest version of the PAC CLI ?

Hey @chris-nguyen-MSFT, thanks for reaching out, we are looking into the issue. As the 'adx_settings' field holds configurations for the list component, seems like something might have been set incorrectly/differently that PAC download is not able to parse. Can you please share the WebAPI response for the record having the issue, need to check the response we get for the 'adx_settings' field in the given scenario.
API - [Your Organization Uri]/api/data/v9.0/adx_entitylists(f8e162f8-213a-ed11-9daf-001dd8023633)

For more details you can refer - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/webapi/query-data-web-api
Note: If the response contains some sensitive information, I'd request you to work with the Support team and create a support incident to discuss further on this.
Hi @MrRishabhJain , the adx_settings is attached to the original issue; it's been added here for easy access (it was formatted in VS for readability)
Funny enough after inspecting the record, I see there are a few tab escape characters (\t) in the adx_settings column; I have no idea how they were introduced though.
Hi @chris-nguyen-MSFT, can you please share how you were able to obtain the contents of the "site_settings" field as this seems to be generated by PAC while being downloaded, but the issue is with PAC download itself.
If this was obtained by a previous PAC download, this may contain some stale value, hence recommended method would be to use the Web API as described in my previous comment.
I exported the records via excel using advanced find.
I'll extract using the webapi and send in a follow-up e-mail.
