Query Parameters

Each RESTCONF operation allows zero or more query parameters to be present in the request URL. The specific parameters allowed will depend on the resource type, and sometimes the specific target resource used, in the request.

Query parameters can be given in any order.
Each parameter can appear only once in a request URI.
A default value may apply if the parameter is missing.
Query parameter names and values are case-sensitive.
A server MUST return an error with a 400 Bad Request status-line if a query parameter is unexpected.
The value of any query parameter MUST be encoded according to RFC3986. Any reserved characters MUST be percent-encoded, according to RFC 3986.
