URL parameter syntax

You can insert parameters in the input URL of the ARIS Table, CSV, Excel, JSON, and XML operators, as well as in the configuration of a Call URL action.

A parameter reference is represented by the parameter name in square brackets. If the name contains special characters, it must be enclosed in quotes.

Example 210.

http://[domain]

["web address"]



To represent a literal square bracket, you double the square bracket. In this way, the square bracket does not introduce a parameter reference. For example, http://[[::1]]:8080 does not refer to a parameter, but represents the IPv6 loopback address literal [::1].

At runtime, parameter references will be replaced by the value of their parameter.

A parameter reference can have options appended to it. Options appear inside of the square brackets and are separated by commas. The following options are supported:

  • encode-value="true" causes URL encoding of the resulting parameter string

  • format="format string" causes a numeric or date value to be converted to text with the given format

Example 211.

http://localhost:8080/[path,encode-value="true"]

http://localhost:[port,format="1234"]
