URL Encoder/Decoder

Encode or decode URLs safely.

URL Encoder / Decoder

URL encoding (Percent-encoding) is a mechanism for encoding information in a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI).

Why encode URLs?

URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character-set. Since URLs often contain characters outside the ASCII set, the URL has to be converted into a valid ASCII format.

For example, a space is replaced by %20. This tool allows you to safely encode query parameters for use in API calls or links.
