    In reference to my last Comment,
    You can accept the parameter in endpoint as,

    <#assign search_query = http.request.parameters.name.get("QueryParameter","") />

Hi Gursimrat 

can you try to replace the URL with this?

 

 

<#assign response =  http.client.request("https", "abc:xyz@123.zendesk.com","/api/v2/search.json?query='${search_query}'").get() />

I think the issue is that the http.client is always trying to encode your URL so if you specify an encoded query you will get a double encoded one :)

 

This is just a guess though..

 

Thanks,

Nico
