How to handle spaces in URL parameter values of HTTPS requests?

Hello,

I have a HTTPS API which requires a parameter whose value may contain spaces, which are represented with + characters in workibg example URLs I have from the API provider. An example url would be "https://api.server.domain/rpc?name=School+Name".

Hiw do I include this in the parameters of a Communications.makeWebRequest (meaning the second argument to makeWebRequest)?

I tried adding the plus, replacing it with a space or leaving it out completely, and it never worked

Best regards

Aaron

You should pass it in the parameters argument of makeWebRequest, it'll take care of the url encoding

I have included it in the parameters, but no matter how (with spaces, with a plus) I put it, it didn't work...

It works however in my browser with the format I mentioned earlier...

I want to replicate exactly that
