Can't Open URL Scheme

I created the following URL Scheme from Cultured Code's URL Scheme builder:

things:///show?id=today&filter=%E2%9D%87%EF%B8%8F%20Focus

In KMB the URL is orange (I assume it's an error):


It appears as if the % is a character I can't use in the URL? How can I get around this?

Thanks!

The reason there is ton of % I think is that the tag I am trying to filter by the tag ":sparkle: Focus" and it's rendering the emoji with other characters comprising of %.

If I remove the emoji the URL scheme does not fail.

If I open the original URL (wtih %) in Alfred it does open and render right. KMB just does not like it.

This works for me:

Basically, you'll want to filter the tag text, emoji included, to encode it for use in a URL, then use that encoded URL version.
