  • Key Concepts: 
    A query string is a part of a URL that contains data to be passed to web applications or scripts. It is used to send small amounts of data from the client to the server via the URL. In SAP, query strings are used in Business Server Pages (BC-BSP) to pass data from the browser to the server. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Query strings are used in BC-BSP applications to pass data from the browser to the server. The query string is appended to the URL and contains key-value pairs that represent the data being passed. The key-value pairs are separated by an ampersand (&) and each key-value pair is separated by an equals sign (=). 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using query strings, it is important to ensure that they are properly encoded and decoded. This will help prevent malicious code from being injected into your application. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the query string does not exceed the maximum length of a URL, which is typically around 2000 characters.
