QueryParam

Use the QueryParam policy to set, update, or delete a query parameter in the request.

Examples

Set using reference variable:

In this example, the value of the query parameter tenant is set to the tenant ID found in the ION API request context.

<queryParam
    xmlns="http://www.infor.com/ion/api"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    name="queryParam-example" displayName="queryParam-example" enabled="true" version="1.0">
    <action>set<action> 
    <paramName>tenant</paramName>
    <paramValue ref="context.tenant"></paramValue>
</queryParam>

In the example, reference is made to a variable in the context object. The context object is a shared dictionary of information that can be accessed from the policies.

Set hard-coded value:

In this example, the query parameter sort is set to the value true.

<queryParam name="queryParam-example" displayName="queryParam-example" enabled="true" version="1.0">
    <action>set<action>  
    <paramName>sort</paramName>
    <value>true</value>
</queryParam>

delete all:

In this example, all query-string parameters are being deleted. One reason you might want to do this is that the query-string values are used to create to create headers (using the Header policy) and you do not want the query-string values passed to the target server.

<queryParam name="queryParam-example" displayName="queryParam-example" enabled="true" version="1.0">
    <action>delete<action>  
    <paramName>*</paramName>
    <value>true</value>
</queryParam>
