How to Use This URL Encoder / Decoder
Paste a URL or text snippet, choose encode or decode, then decide whether you are working on a full URL or only one component.
Select component or full-URI mode
Component mode uses encodeURIComponent and escapes reserved characters like /, ?, and &. Full-URI mode uses encodeURI and preserves the URL structure, so use it only when encoding a complete address.
Paste your input and run
Type or paste the query parameter value, path segment, or full URL. The tool processes the input and shows the result with input and output character counts.
Inspect the URL parts breakdown
When the input looks like a full URL, the tool parses and displays the protocol, host, pathname, and query string separately so you can verify each segment.
