[Bug]: Python on Windows defaults to cp1252 encoding for CSV files

[alexc-rw]

Do I have the most recent api-cookbook code?

• [x] I am using the latest code available on the main branch of the api-cookbook repo.

Is there an existing issue for this?

• [x] I have searched the existing issues.

Current Behavior

Running as-is results in an encoding exception:

 pipenv run python pivotal_import.py
[Note] This importer adheres to the Shortcut API rate limit of 200 requests per minute.
       It may pause for up to 70 seconds during processing to avoid request throttling.
Traceback (most recent call last):

UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x9d in position 5110: character maps to <undefined>

Fix:

Change line 594 of pivotal_import.py to specify utf-8:

with open(pt_csv_file, mode="r", encoding="utf-8") as csvfile:

Expected Behavior

Import running as expected
