Sets all of the Query Fields based on the content of the HTTP request that the OECGI creates.

Syntax

Response = HTTP_Services('SetQueryFields')

Returns

N/A

Parameters

N/A

Remarks

This assumes the SetOECGIRequest service has already been called so that the Request array is in memory. The SetQueryField service is used to perform the actual setting of the values. 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 SetQueryFields service provides a similar functionality as the  Inet_QueryParam function, although the latter is only useful with the RUN_OECGI_REQUEST dispatch routine.
