URL Encoder / Decoder

How does URL Encoder / Decoder work?

This tool encodes text using percent-encoding so it is safe to use inside a URL query string, or decodes an already-encoded string back to plain text.

How to use it

1. Paste the text or encoded value into the box.
2. Click "Encode" to percent-encode it, or "Decode" to reverse an encoded value.
3. Copy the result into your URL, request or code.

Common use cases

• Building a query string parameter manually, for example encoding a search term with spaces or accents.
• Decoding a URL with %20 or %2F sequences to read it in plain text.
• Debugging a redirect or webhook URL that contains encoded characters.
