What this tool does

URL Encode / Decode transforms text into a URL-safe format and back again. That helps when query parameters, callback URLs, redirect targets, or encoded fragments need to be inspected or generated manually.

Common use cases

  • Encoding query parameter values before testing a URL.
  • Decoding redirect or callback values while debugging.
  • Inspecting webhook or auth-related URL fragments.
  • Preparing safe values for copy-paste into browser or API tools.

How to use this tool

  1. Paste text into the input panel.
  2. Use URL Encode to create a URL-safe value.
  3. Use URL Decode to reverse an encoded value.
  4. Copy the result into your request, browser, or debugging tool.

FAQ

Should I encode a full URL or just a parameter value?

Usually you encode the specific URL component, especially query parameter values.

Why does decode fail?

The input may contain malformed percent-encoding or may already be plain text.

Can I use this for redirect debugging?

Yes. It is useful when redirect targets or callback values are URL-encoded.

Is the conversion private?

Yes. It runs locally in your browser.
