How to add parameters into a url to pass data between scripts

Question

I've been trying to add url parameters like the ones in youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dJT-99KpiI but I have no idea how to.

Relevant Node.js Server Code:

function(err, session) {
    var url = new URL(window.location.href);
    url.searchParams.append("sessionId",session.Id);
  }

Relevant Javascript Client-Side Code

url =  new URL(window.location.href);
var sessionId = url.searchParams.get("sessionId");
console.log(sessionId);

Been trying to add url parameters how? What code have you tried? Can you show an example? — King11

Hi Dear You can pass parameters in this way

function functionName(parameter1, parameter2, parameter3) {
  // code to be executed
}

I need more context, but you can use string literals, for example:

const id = 'Qe500eIK1oA';
const link = `https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=${id}`;

or just concat the string with the id

const link = 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=' + id;

and then you can use it like this, for example

window.open(link);

The most robust way to add a query string (the ?key=value&foo=bar part of a URL) to a URL in JS is using the built-in URL class and its URLSearchParams:

const url = new URL('https://youtube.com');
url.searchParams.append('v','1dJT-99KpiI');
console.log(url);
