The append() method of the URLSearchParams interface appends a specified key/value pair as a new search parameter.
As shown in the example below, if the same key is appended multiple times it will appear in the parameter string multiple times for each value.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.
Syntax
URLSearchParams.append(name, value)
Parameters
- name
- The name of the parameter to append.
- value
- The value of the parameter to append.
Return value
Void.
Examples
let url = new URL('https://example.com?foo=1&bar=2');
let params = new URLSearchParams(url.search.slice(1));
//Add a second foo parameter.
params.append('foo', 4);
//Query string is now: 'foo=1&bar=2&foo=4'
