Unable to include % in API query string as a separator

(Zee A ) #1

Trying to query an API with a query string that uses % as keyword separator. HTTP request results in no action and breaks the flow.

Here’s the API url along with needed parameters that is provided in the HTTP request:
http://placeholder.ge/api/products/?q=ლიბერო%4%ზომა&get_frontend_urls=Y&match=all

where “q=ლიბერო%4%ზომა” roughly equals to “q=running%shoes%size%11”

Non-english alphabet doesn’t seem to be a problem since it works fine when using a single keyword (e.g.: q=ლიბერო --> q=shoes)

Surprisingly, this problem also comes up when I try to include this url in a message to a user. Message displays all other content except of this url/link.

I’m stuck. please help. thanks!

Hi @Zee_A

What do you see in the interaction logs when you include the % characters? Is there a particular error showing?
