 I am facing the following issue: When querying from my integration I am passing a text rule input with a single quote [&amp;#39;] in it.

Indeed &amp;#39;separator&amp;#39; was not correct, I meant that I have to put the name between single quotes. I&amp;#39;ll look for the solution on the API side.&lt;/p&gt;

[quote userid="35928" url="~/discussions/f/integrations/21329/encoding-issue-with-a-single-quote-in-a-query-parameter"]since it is also the separator in my query it&amp;#39;s not working[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;Are you saying that the API you&amp;#39;re calling expects that the parameter includes the name&amp;nbsp;encased in single quotes? If so, you probably need to work with the API to determine what syntax they would expect to receive if there is a name with a quote in it. You could certainly substitute any&amp;nbsp;character it expects instead, but keep in mind that any API call will encode special characters:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.asp"&gt;www.w3schools.com/.../ref_urlencode.asp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
