How Query Parameter Parsing Works
URL query parameters are the key-value pairs that appear after the question mark (?) in a URL. They are used to pass data to web applications and are essential for dynamic web content.
URL Structure:
https://example.com/page?key1=value1&key2=value2&key3=value3
Common Query Parameter Examples:
- Search:
?q=keyword - Pagination:
?page=2&limit=10 - Sorting:
?sort=price&order=asc - Filters:
?category=books&price_min=10
- Tracking:
?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc - Language:
?lang=en_US - API Keys:
?api_key=abc123&format=json - Session IDs:
?session_id=xyz789
Parsing Examples:

Parsed Parameters:

Query Parameter FAQ
URL query parameters are key-value pairs appended to a URL after a question mark (?). They're important because they allow websites to pass data between pages, enable bookmarking of specific page states, support tracking and analytics, and facilitate API requests with specific parameters.
Proper formatting includes:
1. Start with a question mark (?) after the base URL
2. Separate parameters with ampersands (&)
3. Use equals signs (=) between keys and values
4. URL-encode special characters (spaces become %20 or +)
5. Keep parameter names lowercase for consistency
6. Avoid using sensitive data in query parameters

There's no official maximum length, but practical limits exist:
- Internet Explorer: 2,048 characters
- Chrome/Firefox/Safari: Around 64,000 characters
- Servers: Often limit to 8,192 characters
No, query parameters are not secure for sensitive data. They:
- Appear in browser history
- Are logged in server access logs
- Can be bookmarked or shared
- May be visible in network tools
