About URL Encoding

URL encoding converts special characters into a format that can be safely transmitted in URLs. It replaces unsafe characters with a "%" followed by their hexadecimal value.

  • • Use encoding for query parameters and form data
  • • Safe characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, -, _, ., ~) are not encoded
  • • Spaces can be encoded as %20 or + (context dependent)
