Add a Query Parameter to a REST Request

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.AddQueryParam, which adds or replaces a query-string parameter. The 1st argument is the parameter name and the 2nd is its value; Chilkat URL-encodes both as needed.

Background. For a GET request the accumulated parameters are appended to the URL query string. For a form-url-encoded request the same parameters form the request body.

    success := false

    rest := chilkat.NewRest()

    //  Connect to the REST server.  The 3rd argument enables TLS (use true for HTTPS on port 443),
    //  and the 4th enables automatic reconnection if the connection is dropped between requests.
    bTls := true
    bAutoReconnect := true
    success = rest.Connect("example.com",443,bTls,bAutoReconnect)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(rest.LastErrorText())
        rest.DisposeRest()
        return
    }

    //  Add query-string parameters.  The 1st argument is the parameter name and the 2nd is its value.
    //  Chilkat automatically URL-encodes names and values as needed.
    rest.AddQueryParam("q","chilkat rest")
    rest.AddQueryParam("limit","10")

    //  For a GET request the parameters are appended to the URL query string.
    responseText := rest.FullRequestNoBody("GET","/api/search")
