Get file path from list recent files using Microsoft graph API

I'm new to Microsoft graph API where I query:

GET /me/drive/recent

List recent files

But I have just one problem with the JSON response. The attribute: "webDavUrl" returns an encoded string with the file path.

Example of the attribute "webDavUrl" with the encoded value:

 "webUrl": sitename/Documents/Microsoft%20Teams%20Chat%20Files/Inla%CC%88mningsuppgift%20-%20test%20test.pdf",

Is it possible to return a file path in the list of recent files without the encoding in Microsoft graph API or do I need to decode the string myself?

Graph API returns only encoded url and you have to decode it by yourself.

In JS it should be simple by calling decodeURI() function.

const encodedUrl = 'sitename/Documents/Microsoft%20Teams%20Chat%20Files/Inla%CC%88mningsuppgift%20-%20test%20test.pdf';

// decode complete URL
const url = decodeURI(encodedUrl);
