# Query String

A query string is a part added to an URL resource to pass form data, options, settings or other parameters to the executing web service.

## Syntax

In a typical implementation, parameters are indicated by this syntax:

^ Separator ^ Parameter ^ Assignator ^ Value ^
| `?` | `name` | `=` | `value` | 

Multiple parameters are separated with `&`.

### Examples:

For the URL `http://example.com/path/to/page`, parameters could look like this:

`http://example.com/path/to/page?name=value`

`http://example.com/path/to/page?first=this&then=that`
