FAQ
Q1. If I add a parameter by QueryParam rule and the same parameter already exists in the given url, will Requestly overwrite the parameter value ?
Ans: Yes, Requestly will overwrite the value present in the url to the value given in the rule. For example:
Rule Definition:
Url Contains example.com
Add Param “a” Value “200”
When Requestly gets above query param rule definition and the request url is http://www.example.com?a=100, then it will change the param value to 200 as per the rule and the new url will be http://www.example.com?a=200
Q2. What is the difference between “Remove” and “RemoveAll” ?
Ans: RemoveAll will remove all the parameters while Remove will remove only provided parameter.
