Actual JSON file content:
Using Duplicati - 2.0.5.1_beta_2020-01-18
To export I click on the backup job and Configuration/Export/To file

My guess is that the @ in the username is parsed.
When I tested, it behaved only without the @ in username. I’d have asked you to file an issue, but I see
Parsing a .json configuration for WebDAV does not work #3619 which was closed as not reproducible.
Looking at it further, I think the difference is that the export without password export selected leaves @.
Looking at the TargetURL, this looks like how you ran. Does yours run OK if you export the password?
Yes, if “export passwords” is selected, @ is replaced with %40 in the JSON file and import works as expected.
