Underscore in props.conf stanza with source meta key

Hi Splunkers, I have a doubt about underscores and path in props.conf.

Suppose, in my props.conf, I have:

[source::/aaa/bbb/ccc_ddd]

As you can see, in my path I have an underscore in path name.
This could be a problem? I mean: can I put the underscore without problem or I have to use backslash to escape it?
