Pass a URL parameter that includes the ampersand (&) character

[Jean-Marc Kiener]

Hi,
My unigui app gets called by following URL: http://myuniguiapp.com/?request_uri=http://domain2.com/?param1=1&param2=2&myuniguiappparam1=1

As you can see, the param "request_uri" represents a URL wtih two params.

var test := UniApplication.Parameters.Values['redirect_uri']

The variable test contains "http://domain2.com/?param1=1".

But i need the whole text of the param "request_uri", includes all params in the url: http://domain2.com/?param1=1&param2=2

ChatGPT says, i have to replace the & char in the param value with %26, somethinl like this: http://myuniguiapp.com/?request_uri=http://domain2.com/?param1=1%26param2=2&myuniguiappparam1=1

But i get the same result in my test variable, param2 is detected as own parameter in UniApplication.Parameters.

Does anybody have a hack for that?

Hello,

1. try solution from here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16622504/escaping-ampersand-in-url

or

2. try to send URI as Base64

or 

3. when you get params on server side, try to replace %26 with & and load URI in TStrings (List)

Hello,

You need to encode the string, or just try replacing & with %26

[Jean-Marc Kiener]

I already replaced the & with %26 and called my app in a browser with: http://myuniguiapp.com/?request_uri=http://domain2.com/?param1=1%26param2=2&myuniguiappparam1=1

UniApplication.parameters will not recognize it. As result, two parameters are created in uniApplication.parameters.

uniApplication.Parameters.Values['redirect_uri'] = "http://domain2.com/?param1=1"  // here, the second param is not present

uniApplication.parameters.Values['param2'] = 2 // here we find the second parameter as a own parameter. Even if i use a & or %26

uniApplication.parameters.Values['myuniguiappparam1'] = 1  //Correct

You can use this:

strVal := UniSession.ARequest.Params.Values['YourParameter'];
