How does it work?
This criterion lets you match based on the absence, presence, or values of query string parameters in your URLs.
Operators
You can select the following logical conditions:
| Value | The Rule is True When… |
|---|---|
| is one of | any of the query string values you specified in the text field is present in the requested URL. |
| is not one of | any of the query string values you specified in the text field is not present in the requested URL. |
| exists | any of the parameter names you specified in the text field is present in the requested URL. It checks for the presence, not the value of the parameter. |
| does not exist | any of the parameter names you specified in the text field is not present in the requested URL. It checks for the absence, not the value of the parameter. |
| is less than | the numeric query string value is less than the lower bound you provided. |
| is more than | the numeric query string value is greater than the upper bound you provided. |
| is in range | the numeric query string value is between the lower and upper bounds you provided. |
Fields
Query strings use the ?param=value format.
In the name field, enter the parameter of the query string you want to use for the match, for example, title in ?topic=chapter2 .
Optionally, you can specify the value of the query string, for example, chapter2 in ?topic=chapter2.
For a large number of values, you can paste the addresses and separate them with a space, comma, or carriage return. If you omit the value, the match applies to any request that contains the parameter.
Wildcards
| Wildcard | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| * | matches zero or more characters | The rule includes a match where the query string value is 123*. Some possible valid results are 123 and123456. |
| ? | matches a single character | The rule includes a match where the query string value is 123?. Some possible valid results are 123 and 1234. |
