# get params

This block is part of the [`http connection`](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/http%20connection) group and was last modified in core [`v10.4.28`](https://docs.rual.nl/core-versions/100428).

Returns all params if present, params are optional or required parameters in API URIs, for example `:name`.

- connection required `httpconnection`

- params `object`

A typical wiring for [get params](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/http%20connection/httpconnection_get_params): [current request](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/http%20connection/httpconnection_current_request) feeds the `connection` pin; the `params` out pin feeds [get fields](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/object/object_field_getter_multiple).
