URL Encoder / Decoder
Percent-encode URLs and query strings, or decode them.
A URL can only contain a limited set of characters, so spaces, ampersands and non-Latin text have to be percent-encoded (a space becomes %20). This tool encodes a string so it is safe to drop into a link, or decodes a cluttered URL back into something you can actually read.
When it saves you
- Building query strings by hand for testing an endpoint.
- Debugging a redirect or tracking link full of
%sequences. - Passing search terms or file names safely inside a URL parameter.
