Hi

There's no need to encode the value of your StringRuleItem when creating RuleBasedUserList. However, you may take note that for URL/Referrer URL, value can not contain illegal URL chars such as: "()'\"\t". Also, yes, you could follow the link that you provided to fix the common formatting issue if you're using custom parameters.

Thanks and regards,

Luis
