Double quotes in csv-table cell

I am struggling to add a cell with double quotes in the csv-table.

.. csv-table:: 
   :header: f,d

   2,"ts*"

the above one works fine.
But if I try to get the cell as ts"*" instead of ts*, it starts throwing an error :

Error with CSV data in "csv-table" directive: ',' expected after '"'

I tried using escape characters (like \ ) but it didn't work.

I was trying it here : online editor

I think i found the solution; There is an option to specify the escape sequence :escape: '. 

.. csv-table:: 
   :escape: '
   :header: f,d

   2,"ts'"*'""

It is now showing the cell as ts"*".

Try it online
