URL Encode

URL Encode converts special characters in your text to their percent-encoded equivalents (e.g. spaces become %20, & becomes %26), making the result safe to include in a URL query string or path segment. Essential for constructing URLs programmatically or debugging encoded request parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between URL encoding and Base64 encoding?

URL encoding replaces unsafe characters with % + hex codes so the string is safe in a URL. Base64 converts binary data to a printable ASCII string. They solve different problems.

Should I encode the entire URL or just the query values?

Only encode the values within query parameters, not the full URL. Encoding slashes and colons in the base URL would break it.
