What Is URL Encoding?
URL encoding (also called percent-encoding) replaces characters that are not allowed in URLs with a % followed by their two-digit hexadecimal code. For example, a space becomes %20 and an ampersand becomes %26. This ensures the URL is interpreted correctly by browsers and servers.
Common Uses
- Encoding query string parameter values before appending them to a URL

&,=, and+in GET requests - Building redirect URLs or constructing API request URLs programmatically
