URL parameter with # symbol ?

Question

I am sending following URL via postman. The url parameter value ‘name=satheesh#kumar’ contains # symbol.

When apigee receives the request the value ‘#kumar’ got stripped off. Other symbols [!”£$..etc] are getting encoded except #.

PFA. Please let me know why its ‘#kumar’ getting removed from URL ? is it a apigee bug or something else?

# is a separator for URL fragment -- you probably need to URL encode it if you want it to be a value of a queryparam -- %23

Postman may not automatically encode, since it thinks its a fragment
