Escaping braces help

[elminster3k]

I have a variable of a message I am trying to pass to a discord webhook. If the message every has a curly brace in it, it dies trying to send. I seem to be able to strip out unwanted characters, but cant do this with curly braces for some reason. I have tried:

#replace variable {\{}{};
as well as:
#replace variable {\x7B}{};

Just can't seem to get them to go away.

I was able to find the answer on a cached page from the old forums. This worked for me:

#REPLACE {test} {\\x7b} {(}

Seems I needed to add an extra backspace.
