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.

Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

$success = $false

$rest = New-Object Chilkat.Rest

#  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 -eq $false) {
    $($rest.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

#  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 = $rest.FullRequestNoBody("GET","/api/search")
if ($rest.LastMethodSuccess -eq $false) {
    $($rest.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

$($responseText)
