URL · Query string

Paste a URL or query value, encode or decode it, and copy the result. Component mode is safer when the string is a single query parameter.

  • Paste the URL or string.
  • Optionally use URI-component mode for query values.
  • Encode or decode, then copy the output.

Questions

Do I need an account?
No. Guests can encode and decode URLs freely.
What is component mode?
It uses encodeURIComponent, which is safer for query parameter values than encoding a full URL.
Why decode failed?
The string may contain an invalid percent sequence. Check for incomplete % encodings.
Is this encryption?
No. Percent-encoding only makes strings URL-safe.
Is it free?
Yes.
