What is URL Encoder/Decoder?

URL Encoder/Decoder converts special characters in URLs to their percent-encoded form and back. Essential for working with query strings, API parameters, and any URL that contains spaces or special characters.

How to use

  1. Paste a URL or text string into the input field.
  2. Click Encode to convert special characters to percent-encoded form, or Decode to convert back.
  3. Copy the result to your clipboard or use the swap button to switch input/output.
