I am using URL based JIRA creation and i have an use case where i want to have description created as follows 

Kindly fill the below section. If a question is irrelevant, leave it blank or write N/A

What is the business functionality required?

How this will help?

Acceptance Criteria

 in the URL created i am using

&description=Kindly+break-down+the+Epic+in+tangible+deliverables+and+fill+out/describe+below+points:+*1.What+is+the+business+functionality/activity+required?*+*2.+How+this+will+help?*+*3.+Acceptance+Criteria

The problem is this appears as following in jira, how to use the next line while creating URL 

Kindly break-down the Epic in tangible deliverables and fill out/describe below points: 1.What is the business functionality/activity required? 2. How this will help? 3. Acceptance Criteria

Note: I am following the logic from this documentation - How to create issues using direct HTML links in Jira Server | Jira | Atlassian Documentation
