How can I use a branch name which contains a forward slash in a Get request

My branch name has a forward slash e.g. test/homepage-feature

I want to use the following GET request to get the last branch build. When I use that, I'm getting 404 error "message": "Build not found or access denied."

GET /api/projects/{accountName}/{projectSlug}/branch/{buildBranch}

Could you please let me know if the GET request supports a branch which contains a forward slash?

   Have you tried test%2Fhomepage-feature?

   Yes, I have. It doesn't solve.

   {
       "message": "Build not found or access denied."
   }

   OK, it works without an encode. Try this in your browser:

   Thanks Feodor.

   I have double-checked. It works for me now. The reason why it didn't work when I tried first time is because I cancelled the build of my branch after it's stuck in the queue.

   After I re-ran the build, the GET request is working with my branch.
