URL Decoder/Encoder - GUID Converter

  • Article

What a great little tool by Eric Meyer.  Input a nasty looking URL string, and it will make it into something that you can read.  To explain the possible benefit, let me show you what I used it for.

In SharePoint, when viewing a list's settings you can see the guid for the list in the URL. So if I copy that URL and paste it into Eric's tool, it can decode it for me into something that is a little more useable. 

Original URL: /_layouts/listedit.aspx?List= %7BAA90DD8B%2DD2B7%2D49E9%2DA8DE%2D9138AB94CA68%7D

Decoded URL: /_layouts/listedit.aspx?List ={AA90DD8B-D2B7-49E9-A8DE-9138AB94CA68}
