I'm using Invoke-RestMethod to get page names from an application I'm using. I notice that when I do a GET on the page it returns the page name like so

This page â is working

However the actual page name is

This page – is working

Here's how my request looks

 Invoke-WebRequest -Uri ("https://example.com/rest/api/content/123789") -Method Get -Headers $Credentials -ContentType "application/json; charset=utf-8"

The problem is with the en-dash, does anyone know how I can fix this?

One line solution (without files):

[system.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetString((Invoke-WebRequest "https://www.example.com").RawContentStream.ToArray())
