Double URL Encoding advised for BOM (Lot) Numbers

When submitting BOM (Lot) numbers to API endpoints, apply double URL encoding to handle special characters like forward slashes (/), question marks (?), spaces and plus signs (+) that may be present in BOM (Lot) numbers. Single encoding may not be sufficient and can result in HTTP 404 errors or malformed requests. For example, encode ABC/123+DEF as ABC%252F123%252BDEF.

Alternatively, you can retrieve a URL-friendly version of the BOM (Lot) number from the GET endpoint response, which provides a pre-encoded identifier safe for use in subsequent API calls.
