Resource vs Query String Parameters (Explained by Example)

Resource Parameters and Query String are two methods to send data to the web server through URI (Unified Resource Identifier). The resource parameters use the / in the URL to identify while query string uses the question mark.

In this video we explain the difference between resource parameters and query string, when it is appropriate to use each and we will as usual code both examples from scratch so you can build your next REST API.

Stay awesome!
