URL Encode Webhook Bodies for Forwarding

🧩 Problem

Forwarded webhooks get rejected when not URL-encoded. When malformed or unstructured data hits routers, filters, or API connectors, entire automations halt or silently drop records. Teams end up retrying runs, hand-editing payloads, and explaining delays to customers.

πŸ’‘ Why This Happens

Some APIs only accept x-www-form-urlencoded payloads. Most automation platforms assume well-formed payloads and do minimal validation. AI models, third-party APIs, and changing vendor schemas drift over time, mixing encodings, formats, and unexpected fields that downstream steps cannot tolerate.
