URL Encode, Decode & Parse Online (Free, Private)

Encode and decode URL strings, parse query parameters, and inspect URL components — all on one page, nothing uploaded.

URL encoding (percent-encoding) converts special characters like spaces and ampersands into safe ASCII for query strings and path segments. Essential when building API requests or debugging broken links.

Encode and Decode tabs

  • Component mode — encode/decode individual values (spaces → %20)
  • Full URL mode — encode or decode an entire URL string
  • Form mode — application/x-www-form-urlencoded (spaces → +)
  • Live output updates as you type

Parse tab — break down any URL

  • Protocol, host, port, pathname, hash extracted automatically
  • Query parameters table with decoded name/value pairs
  • Debug redirect chains and OAuth callback URLs

Common encoded characters

  • Space → %20 (or + in form encoding)
  • Ampersand & → %26
  • Equals = → %3D
  • Plus + → %2B
