What is URL Encoding?
URL encoding, also known as percent-encoding, is a mechanism for encoding information in a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). It replaces unsafe ASCII characters with a "%" followed by two hexadecimal digits. URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character set, so URL encoding is used to convert non-ASCII characters to a format that can be transmitted.
Common Use Cases
- Query Parameters - Encode query parameters in URLs to ensure special characters are properly transmitted.
- Form Submissions - Encode form data for proper submission in web applications.
- API Requests - Ensure API request parameters are properly formatted and safe for transmission.
