URL Escaping for Firebase

Question

I am trying to download a image stored in the Firebase Storage, using Unity. I use Unity Firebase SKD (in Beta...). This is my code:

  ...
  // Points to "1/preview.jpg"
     Firebase.Storage.StorageReference img_ref = folder1_ref.Child("/preview.jpg");

 // Fetch the download URL
 img_ref.GetDownloadUrlAsync().ContinueWith(task => {
     Debug.Log(task.Result.ToString());
     });

The console output is:

 https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/insidehome-29c9e.appspot.com/o/1/preview.jpg?alt=media&token=092a8de8-5047-4bce-b179-edd4101847a3

If I try to download the file using www or a browser, with this URL, I obtain an error. The good URL should be (copied by Firebase console):

 https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/insidehome-29c9e.appspot.com/o/1%2fpreview.jpg?alt=media&token=092a8de8-5047-4bce-b179-edd4101847a3

The difference is only in a single slash ("/") before the word "preview", transformed in %2f

Is this strange? How could I fix it? I try Escape the URL but it change all the slash:

 https%3A%2F%2Ffirebasestorage.googleapis.com%2Fv0%2Fb%2Finsidehome-29c9e.appspot.com%2Fo%2F1%2F99%2Fobama.jpg%3Falt%3Dmedia%26token%3D8a33f998-e271-4d7e-8848-356a332b7750

And It does't work. I need to change only the parameters (right) slash

task.Result.OriginalString will work.

 reference.GetDownloadUrlAsync ().ContinueWith ((task) =>
  {
     if (task.IsFaulted || task.IsCanceled) {
         Debug.Log(task.Exception.ToString());
                 // Uh-oh, an error occurred!
         } else {
              uri = task.Result.OriginalString;
                 
         }
 });
