The action allows encoding (and decoding) any text (or string) for use in HTTP requests. The reason is that HTTP requests do not allow the use of certain characters.
For example:
•Spaces, TAB characters
•End-of-line characters
•Non-ASCII characters. That is, with a code greater than 127
•Some other characters. For example, square and curly brackets
Such encoding is also useful when using the Runtime Module to pass parameters to a running task.
The encoding principle is quite simple:
Invalid characters are encoded with the combination %NN, where NN is the character code in hexadecimal form.
The % character is encoded as %%.
When encoding, you will get a string without spaces and other invalid characters. When decoding, you will get the original string (or multiline text).
