How to pass application/x-www-form-urlencoded requst in ReadAPI having plus sign '+' in request body

REST request doesn’t work and 400 Bad request is received in response from server when following request is sent in body with Media Type x-www-form-urlencoded. However sometime this services works properly and 200 status code is returned. After hours of investigation it is found that when request contains plus symbol ‘+’ then SoapUI doesn’t send it properly hence 400 is received. When request doesn’t contain + symbol then it works fine.

Problem here is that refresh_token value is auto generated from server and we can’t skip the + symbol . So kindly help me to find a way how can I send following request with Media Type x-www-form-urlencoded without any problem


Note: If I run following request in Postman it works perfectly, so there is some problem with ReadyAPI not sure it’s a bug or what. Find the attached screen shots that explain all the situation and to get more idea of the problem.
