Retrofit Encoding Special Characters

I am using retrofit with gson instead of android since its faster and more secure. The problem is that retrofit is encoding special characters like = and ?, and the url I'm using

Solution 1:

You must use Use @EncodedPath. like this:

publicinterfaceplaceApi {
@GET("/{id}")
public void getFeed(@EncodedPath("id") TypedString id,
   Callback<PlaceModel> response);
}

Note: The above works but now I am looking at the doc and it seems that the @EncodedPath is deprecated so use @PATH with its parameter instead:

publicinterfaceplaceApi {
@GET("/{id}")
public void getFeed(@Path("id", encode=false) TypedString id,
   Callback<PlaceModel> response);
}
