    Hi dchou,

     

    I made a slight tweak to your freemarker LiQL call and it worked for me on the site I tested on:

     

    <#assign x = rest("2.0","/search?q=" + "SELECT * FROM messages WHERE labels.text = 'Hello World'"?url) />

    The Query should get URL decoded before it's run, so the url-encoded space should be ok.

     

    Let me know if that changed query works for you or not.

Thanks, I realized later that the i had to decode the %20 and replace it with a space and rerun the query.
