I am trying to get data from salesforce API using SOQL method. Problem is that when send ajax get request it encodes url that results in failure of $ajax request.

How can I send plain url in ajax request without encoding url.

Sample request is HERE:

                     $.ajax({
                             type: "GET",
                             url: "https://ap1.salesforce.com/services/data/v35.0/query?q=SELECT Id FROM Contact WHERE Email= '" + Email + "'",
                             headers: {
                                 "Authorization": "OAuth " + access_token,
                                 'Content-Type': 'text/plain'
                             },
                             crossDomain: true,
                             dataType: 'application/json',
                             success: function (responseData) {
                                 console.log(responseData);
                             },
                             error: function (request, status, error) {
                                 console.log(request.responseText);
                             }
                         });

What is the actual error that is occurring? – Jason P Nov 07 '16 at 18:58
@JasonP here is the error - http://screencast.com/t/XwwVp2EK it returns undefined response – Faisal Ijaz Nov 07 '16 at 19:06
@AniketSahrawat `q=SELECT Id FROM Contact WHERE Email= '" + Email` works fine in postman it reutrns response data. But when i try it in my script it returns undefined - Here you see [screencast.com/t/XwwVp2EK] – Faisal Ijaz Nov 07 '16 at 19:08
try to replace the spaces with "+" – Yoshiaki Nakamura Nov 07 '16 at 19:10
@YoshiakiNakamura Now that i have replaced the spaces with + its good the only thing that is creating error is that `'` is converted into %22 i.e. https://ap1.salesforce.com/services/data/v35.0/query?q=SELECT+Id+FROM+Contact+WHERE+Email=%someemail@yahoo.com%22 – Faisal Ijaz Nov 07 '16 at 19:31
@FaisalIjaz try %27 for ' – Yoshiaki Nakamura Nov 07 '16 at 19:33
@YoshiakiNakamura I did but no result – Faisal Ijaz Nov 07 '16 at 19:44
@FaisalIjaz did you tried to remove it ? `/query?q=SELECT+Id+FROM+Contact+WHERE+Email=someemail@yahoo.com` – Yoshiaki Nakamura Nov 07 '16 at 19:53
@YoshiakiNakamura NO. URL is here. https://ap1.salesforce.com/services/data/v35.0/query?q=SELEC‌T+Id+FROM+Contact+WH‌ERE+Email=%27sabirre‌hman78@yahoo.com%27 – Faisal Ijaz Nov 07 '16 at 20:05
@FaisalIjaz what about encoding Email= to Email%3D – Yoshiaki Nakamura Nov 07 '16 at 20:09
@YoshiakiNakamura Encoding characters will not work. All I want is plain text url without special chars so that SOQL can can be executed. – Faisal Ijaz Nov 07 '16 at 20:11
@FaisalIjaz did you tried \' instead of ' ? – Yoshiaki Nakamura Nov 07 '16 at 20:18
@YoshiakiNakamura Yea it did not work. – Faisal Ijaz Nov 07 '16 at 20:32
