# RXS_getUrlVar()

Some web services may require their consumers to pull variables off of the URL. This subprocedure will simplify that process. Here is an example URL with variables in **name=value pair** format:

`http://mysite.com/rxs/mywebservice?customer=1&code=3`

* customer is a variable with a value of 1.
* code is a variable with a value of 3.

**Note:** Previously, this API failed to return variables where the variable length was a single character. This was fixed in v2.30.
