Talend Cloud API Tester automatically detects if a query parameter needs to be encoded.
You can enable or disable this option manually, but Talend Cloud API Tester
automatically detects whether the query parameter needs to be encoded based on its value. By
default, it is enabled even if the value does not contain any characters that need encoding.
For example, in https://swapi.dev/api/people/?search=Leia
,
Leia
is encoded.
However, if a query parameter contains a character that is already encoded, the
Encode before sending option is disabled. For example, if the
parameter value is Leia%20Organa
, the encoding is disabled, since Talend Cloud API Tester detects
that the parameter is encoded.
Beru%20Whitesun lars
for example, an encoding is detected and the
Encode before sending option is disabled by default, even though it
contains a space.You may encounter issues with this feature when +
signs are used in query
parameters, for more information, see Encoding issues with plus signs.
