Code Block
Response = HTTP_Services('DecodePercentString', String)

Returns

N/AA decoded (i.e., plain text) string.

Parameters

ParameterDescription
StringThe string with percent-encoded characters. Required.

Remarks

The RunHTTPService service is the official way to call specific web service APIs. The HTTPService argument should contain the same name found in the URL segment that corresponds with the API resource. For instance, for the /customers URL, the HTTPService argument should contain the value of customers. This will call the HTTP_CUSTOMERS_SERVICES BASIC+ routine.

Consider a string that is URL encoded (i.e., URL friendly) such as this:

project%20%3D%20WEBAPI

The DecodePercentString service will return a plaint text user-friendly string like this:

project = WEBAPIThe RemainingURL argument will contain the value of the remaining portion of the URL that follows the current URL segment. Examples of managing this are found in the HTTP_Entry_Point_Services routine.
