I am almost ready to publish my bots and I would like to create some parameters in order to link variables and URLs together. Then, I also need to check that the variables have the right value stored.

How can I do this using the parameters in the publish tab ?

If you want to use parmaters, that means you want to have access to some variables added in the URLs.

For example, in that example _https://YOUR\_BOT\_URL?param1=value1&param2=value2_, you want to access to the params and value.

To do that, you will need to go to the Publish section to create the two parameters :

Then, you just need to create the two variables param1 and param2 in the data manager :

Then, you can add ?param1=value1&param2=value2 to the URL provided in the Share & Embed section of the publish section.

If you start a conversation with your bot, you can go to the Chats section and check that the value is stored in the variable.
