Note to self: cURL with data-urlencode for GET/QuerySting values

I know I would loose this if I didn’t blog it.
With cURL, you can use “–data-urlencode” with query string params and a GET if you include the “-G” parameter. Of course you still have to escape things out, I just found it easer to add all the QueryString params separately. All the examples I could find were for POSTs.

FILTER="ReallyLongStringWIth"$VARS" SPACES and ' SINGLE quotes and a &"
curl -s -G --header "authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" --data-urlencode "\$filter=$FILTER" --data-urlencode "api-version=2016-09-01" $URL
