Frequently Asked Questions

What is URL encoding?

URL encoding (also known as percent-encoding) converts non-ASCII or reserved characters in URLs into a safe ASCII format prefixing hex representations with percent signs.

Why is URL encoding necessary?

URLs can only contain a limited set of ASCII characters. Reserved characters like ?, &, =, and spaces must be encoded if they are part of dynamic query parameter values.
