Special characters, like spaces and foreign language characters, must be encoded using percent encoding (e.g., `%20` for space) or plus signs in specific instances. Reserved characters, such as `=`, `?`, and `|`, also need encoding when used literally, not as control characters. It's best to utilize platform URL building libraries for automatic encoding, guaranteeing proper escaping, because it can be complex to do manually. It is also important to note that URLs are limited to 16384 characters for Google Maps Platform web services.\n"],null,["Some characters cannot be part of a URL (for example, the space) and some other\ncharacters have a special meaning in a URL. In HTML forms, the character `=` is\nused to separate a name from a value. The URI generic syntax uses URL encoding\nto deal with this problem, while HTML forms make some additional substitutions\nrather than applying percent encoding for all such characters.\n\nFor example, spaces in a string are either encoded with `%20` or replaced with\nthe plus sign (`+`). If you use a pipe character (`|`) as a separator, be sure\nto encode the pipe as `%7C`. A comma in a string should be encoded as `%2C`.\n\nIt is recommended you use your platform's normal URL building libraries to\nautomatically encode your URLs, to ensure the URLs are properly escaped for your\nplatform.\n\nBuilding a valid URL\n\nYou may think that a \"valid\" URL is self-evident, but\nthat's not quite the case. A URL entered within an address bar in a\nbrowser, for example, may contain special characters (e.g.\n`\"上海+中國\"`); the browser needs to internally translate\nthose characters into a different encoding before transmission.\nBy the same token, any code that generates or accepts UTF-8 input\nmight treat URLs with UTF-8 characters as \"valid\", but would also need\nto translate those characters before sending them out to a web server.\nThis process is called [URL-encoding](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_string#URL_encoding) or [percent-encoding](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding).\n\nSpecial characters\n\nWe need to translate special characters because\nall URLs need to conform to the syntax specified by the\n[Uniform\nResource Identifier (URI)](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986) specification. In effect, this means that URLs\nmust contain only a special subset of ASCII characters: the familiar\nalphanumeric symbols, and some reserved characters for use as control\ncharacters within URLs. This table summarizes these characters:\nSummary of Valid URL Characters\n\n| Set | characters | URL usage |\n|--------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|\n| Alphanumeric | a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 | Text strings, scheme usage (`http`), port (`8080`), etc. |\n| Unreserved | - _ . \\~ | Text strings |\n| Reserved | ! \\* ' ( ) ; : @ \\& = + $ , / ? % # \\[ \\] | Control characters and/or Text Strings |\n\nWhen building a valid URL, you must ensure that it contains only those characters shown in the\ntable. Conforming a URL to use this set of characters generally\nleads to two issues, one of omission and one of substitution:\n\n- Characters that you wish to handle exist outside of the above set. For example, characters in foreign languages such as `上海+中國` need to be encoded using the above characters. By popular convention, spaces (which are not allowed within URLs) are often represented using the plus `'+'` character as well.\n- Characters exist within the above set as reserved characters, but need to be used literally. For example, `?` is used within URLs to indicate the beginning of the query string; if you wish to use the string \"? and the Mysterions,\" you'd need to encode the `'?'` character.\n\nAll characters to be URL-encoded are encoded\nusing a `'%'` character and a two-character hex\nvalue corresponding to their UTF-8 character. For example,\n`上海+中國` in UTF-8 would be URL-encoded as\n`%E4%B8%8A%E6%B5%B7%2B%E4%B8%AD%E5%9C%8B`. The\nstring `? and the Mysterians` would be URL-encoded as\n`%3F+and+the+Mysterians` or `%3F%20and%20the%20Mysterians`.\n\nCommon characters that need encoding\n\nSome common characters that must be encoded are:\n\n| Unsafe character | Encoded value |\n|------------------|---------------|\n| Space | `%20` |\n| \" | `%22` |\n| \\\u003c | `%3C` |\n| \\\u003e | `%3E` |\n| # | `%23` |\n| % | `%25` |\n| \\| | `%7C` |\n\nConverting a URL that you receive from user input is sometimes\ntricky. For example, a user may enter an address as \"5th\\&Main St.\"\nGenerally, you should construct your URL from its parts, treating\nany user input as literal characters.\n\nAdditionally, URLs are limited to 16384 characters for all Google Maps Platform web services\nand static web APIs. For most services, this character limit will seldom be approached. However,\nnote that certain services have several parameters that may result in long URLs."]]
