Open Text Encoder/Decoder →URL encoding (percent-encoding) converts special characters to a %XX format safe for use in URLs. Characters like spaces become %20, & becomes %26, and = becomes %3D. URL encoding is essential for building query strings, form submissions, and REST API calls. Our tool handles both full URL encoding and component-only encoding.
