I have SharePoint URLs that I'm adding in comments via automation to our users to remind them where to get certain documents, and the URLs always break at a space in the URL.

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

URLs with spaces in them are not valid.  Spaces need to be encoded to be used within a URL, as you've found with the %20

I don't know if or when Microsoft might fix Sharepoint such that it stops allowing us to put spaces in its URLs.

Ah, if I replace the space with "%20" then Jira doesn't break the link AND the link still points to the correct place...

This is very irritating, though! Are there any plans to fix this?
