urlencode Function
Note: This page is about Terraform 0.12 and later. For Terraform 0.11 and earlier, see 0.11 Configuration Language: Interpolation Syntax.
urlencode applies URL encoding to a given string.
This function identifies characters in the given string that would have a special meaning when included as a query string argument in a URL and escapes them using RFC 3986 "percent encoding".
The exact set of characters escaped may change over time, but the result is guaranteed to be interpolatable into a query string argument without inadvertently introducing additional delimiters.
If the given string contains non-ASCII characters, these are first encoded as UTF-8 and then percent encoding is applied separately to each UTF-8 byte.
