Request.RawUrl vs. Request.Url

Question

What is the difference between Request.RawUrl and Request.Url in ASP.NET?

Answer 1

The HttpRequest.RawUrl Property documentation describes the property value as:

The raw URL is defined as the part of the URL following the domain information. In the URL string http://www.contoso.com/articles/recent.aspx, the raw URL is /articles/recent.aspx. The raw URL includes the query string, if present.

The HttpRequest.Url Property documentation describes the property value as:

A Uri object that contains the URL of the current request.

See the Uri class documentation for its properties.
