Should i encode xml and json data like query string

Question

i have a very simple question.

whenever we post query string data by post method we url-encode it.

but now i have to post json and xml. so is that necessary to url-encode json and xml data if someone pass password value like "abc}123" or "abc<123".

thanks.

Don't think you need to do that. Your back end might require that thought. I never had to do that with json rest API's that I had worked on. — Daniel Przybylowski, Oct 25 '17 at 09:20
