+**Attention:** `baseUrl` (and `stateExtension`/`commandExtension`) should not normally use escaping (e.g. `%22` instead of `"` or `%2c` instead of `,`).
URLs are properly escaped by the binding itself before the request is sent.
Using escaped strings in URL parameters may lead to problems with the formatting (see below).
+In certain scenarios you may need to manually escape your URL, for example if you need to include an escaped `=` (`%3D`) in this scenario include `%%3D` in the URL to preserve the `%` during formatting, and set the parameter `escapedUrl` to true on the channel.

## Channels
Each item type has its own channel-type.
Depending on the channel-type, channels have different configuration options.
All channel-types (except `image`) have `stateExtension`, `commandExtension`, `stateTransformation`, `commandTransformation` and `mode` parameters.
