Unable to query unknown letters

Hi, I've managed to GET job listings through the api in my country (Sweden).

When searching for anything without the letters "Å,Ä,Ö" everything works properly, but including those letters will give me an error and the path for the query strings get formatted with random characters.

How do i go about to solve this?

Special characters need to be encoded in URLs. You may need to use Encode URI component as part of the query formula. I’m guessing Städ is being sent in the request instead of St%C3%A4d.

That's correct Tom, but i'm not sure how to apply the Encode URI component as suggested?

In the API configuration in toddle, where you have Städ for q, there is a formula icon. If you add the formula Encode URI component with the search as the value, the result of the formula should show the character encoded.
