Set query parameters#

The Params tab holds the request's query string as a table of key and value pairs. It stays in step with the URL field, so you can build the query here or in the URL bar. This page covers the table, how to enable and disable rows, and the live preview.

The Params table#

Each row has a tickbox, a Key, a Value, and a delete button. The tickbox controls whether the app sends the row. The empty row at the bottom is where you add the next pair: type a key, then press Enter or select the plus button.

The header tickbox turns every row on or off at once. While some rows are on and some are off, it shows a mixed state.

Turn a row on or off#

A row that you turn off stays in the table but stays out of the request. This is a quick way to try a call with and without a parameter, and you do not delete and retype it. Disabled rows also drop out of the URL field.

Watch the URL update#

As you type a key into the bottom row, the URL field above updates to show how the finished URL reads. You can check the query before you commit the row. The app percent-encodes keys and values for you, so type the literal characters you want.

The app still sends an empty value as key=. To leave a pair out, turn its tickbox off rather than clear it.

For the URL side of this, see URL and method.
