      Summary

      When using the function Add Web Link in the new issue view, it takes the character "%" and converts it into "%25" in the URL which potentials leads you to a 404 page depending on the URL. 

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Add a Web link with a URL that includes % character to an issue in the new view (ie: https://www.google.com/search?q=hello%20world).
      2. Save.

      Expected Results

      The link is saved with the same URL provided and when clicking on it, directs you to a new page with the same URL (https://www.google.com/search?q=hello%20world).

      Actual Results

      The character "%" gets replaced by "%25", for example: https://www.google.com/search?q=hello%2520world

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
