Best way to send JSON data.

Question

I have a url

http://example.com/data/

I want to send json data in that url i.e.

http://example.com/data/{"1":{"id":"some_id","xyz":"1","date":"1397287235418","type":"67878"}}

What is the best way to send json data in the url because when I try to send data in this format it gives error

The URI you submitted has disallowed characters.

I know there is allowed character configuration in CI but if I allow there will be a security issue. I have tried urlencode and in server side used urldecode but it's not helping either Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

In php rawurlencode function escape the invalid character. For example,

<?php 
$str = '{"1":{"id":"some_id","xyz":"1","date":"1397287235418","type":"67878"}}';
$str2 = rawurlencode($str);
?>
<a href="/data/<?php echo $str2; ?>">LINK</a>

This shows the url

http://example.com/data/%7B%221%22%3A%7B%22id%22%3A%22some_id%22%2C%22xyz%22%3A%221%22%2C%22date%22%3A%221397287235418%22%2C%22type%22%3A%2267878%22%7D%7D/
