I have a vector:

vec = c("2019-01-01", "2019-02-02", "2019-03-03")

I am looking to create a string for an API call that takes the vector, removes the spaces and adds a % between each character

vec = "2019-01-01%2019-02-02%2019-03-03"

How do i create a vector that automatically inserts the "%" and removes the spaces?

I have tried the following without success. Thank you

paste0(vec, sep = "%")

There is no `sep` argument in `paste0`. Use `collapse` : `paste0(vec, collapse = "%")` – Ronak Shah Oct 01 '20 at 02:33

Thank you but actually this has been asked and answered previously so I marked it as duplicate of that post. – Ronak Shah Oct 01 '20 at 02:46
