@queso Bitly does a process to normalize between different representations of the same url. Those two urls you listed should be semantically equivalent. Can you share where you are running into issues with them not being treated equally?

Note that escape sequences in the value of url=.... like %3F and %3D which would change the meaning of the URL if escaped are not unescaped.
