UnescapeURI

IMPORTANT

Read more about Data Workbench’s End-of-life announcement.

The Unescape URI transformation unescapes any characters in a string that have been escaped.

NOTE

Escaped characters replace the unsafe characters in a URI string. They are represented by a triplet consisting of a percent sign followed by two hexadecimal digits (for example, %20).

Parameter Description Default

The following transformation unescapes the docname value in a HTTP header field and stores the output in the field x-docname-unescaped:

If the docname value were

  • mysite.net/lending%20and%20leasing%20forms/document%20library/credit%20application.doc

then the value of x-docname-unescape would be

  • mysite.net/lending and leasing forms/document library/credit application.doc
