Web URL Percent-Encoding & Decoding
RFC 3986 dictates that unreserved URI characters must be percent-encoded to prevent ambiguous HTTP request parsing. Use this tool to safely encode URI query components or decode obfuscated parameters in seconds.
URL Encoder & Decoder
Percent-encode text strings for web links, decode URL components, and parse query parameters.
Input Text / URL
Processed Output
Parsed Query Parameters
No query parameters detected in URL.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between URL encoding and URL decoding?
URL encoding converts reserved characters and special symbols into percent-encoded hex sequences (such as %20 for spaces) so web browsers and servers can parse query strings without ambiguity. Decoding translates these sequences back into human-readable text.
Does the tool automatically parse query parameters?
Yes. Whenever a URL containing query parameters (?key=value) is pasted, the tool automatically decomposes each parameter into an interactive key-value table below the output box.
Is my URL data logged or cached on any server?
No. All URL encoding, decoding, and parameter inspection run entirely inside your browser's local JavaScript environment. No URLs or auth tokens are ever transmitted externally.
