# MatchEncoding

By default, the Query action returns results that use the same `LANGUAGE` as the `LANGUAGETYPE` of the query (which you specify with the LanguageType parameter or the DefaultLanguageType configuration parameter), regardless of the original encoding. To restrict the results to only those that were originally in a particular encoding or encodings, set `MatchEncoding` to a list of these encodings.

Separate multiple encodings with commas or plus symbols. There must be no space before or after a comma or plus symbol.

Note: If you specify `MatchEncoding` you cannot also specify MatchLanguageType or MatchLanguage.

Click a language to display the available encodings. Alternatively, if you know the standard encoding, you can use the second table to find the IDOL encoding name for this parameter. For each language, you can also set the `Encodings` parameters to `UTF8` or `UCS2`.
