Hello everyone,

I am writing python script of a Get method and I would like to know how to retrieve a parameter  
in the url?

for example, get the variable var “/?var=‘ok’”

I read that it is possible to add urllib.parse to parse the url,  
Does Ignition integrate a method directly for?

Thanks for reading me,  
Regards,  
Erik.

Use something like:

```auto
params = request['params']
print params['var']

```
