How do you URL encode text online?
A URL encode tool percent-encodes text so it is safe inside a URL. Snabbit applies encodeURIComponent, turning spaces, &, ?, = and other reserved characters into %xx escapes while leaving safe characters untouched, so a query value cannot break the link. It runs in your browser, so the text you encode is never uploaded to a server.
How to use the URL Encode
- 1 Type or paste the text you want to encode.
- 2 The percent-encoded result appears instantly.
- 3 Reserved characters become %xx escapes via encodeURIComponent.
- 4 Copy the encoded string.
What you can use it for
- Building a safe query string parameter.
- Encoding a search term before adding it to a link.
- Escaping a redirect or callback URL value.
- Preparing user input for an API request URL.
Frequently asked questions
Which characters get encoded?
Reserved and unsafe characters such as space, &, ?, =, /, # and non-ASCII letters are turned into %xx escapes, while letters, digits and a few safe symbols are left as-is.
Should I encode the whole URL or just a value?
Encode individual query values, not the entire URL. encodeURIComponent escapes characters like / and ?, which you usually want to keep literal in the URL structure itself.
How do spaces appear?
Spaces become %20. This is safe everywhere in a URL; the + form for spaces only applies to form-encoded query strings.
