Returns the value previously set for the indicated Query Field. If then indicated Query Field has not been set then then an error condition will be set.

Syntax

Response = HTTP_Services('GetQueryField', Field)

Returns

The value for the specified Query Field.

Parameters

ParameterDescription
FieldQuery Field to get. Required.

Remarks

Query Fields are what appears at the end of a URL which are in this format:

?<field1>=<value1>[&<field2>=<value2>]

Hence, an example of a full URL with a Query Field would look like this:

https://www.mysite.com/api/contacts?name=smith

Query Fields are often used by an API to filter content. The GetQueryField service provides a similar functionality as the Inet_QueryParam function, although the latter is only useful with the RUN_OECGI_REQUEST dispatch routine.
