How does the API want the percentage sign encoded in payload? #144

I cannot work out how the percentage sign should be encoded for this API. This would be present, for example, in product names when populating customs documentation.

If the percentage sign % is passed as that in the payload, the API generates a misleading error stating authentication failed.

I've tried %25 but that isn't decoded when processed on the API.

To save further guessing, please can someone advise how they solved this?

Shipping API

I'm trying to populate Description field in the International Forms. The entire API call errors out if a percentage sign is included.
