Can't get params from url on Grails application

I'm trying to get parameters from the url using param in a controller. My url is: .../index?format=json

I've tried to get the params from the following two methods:

def format = params.format
def parameters = getParams()

The below is what I get in the debug results:

My question is why the format value isn't coming through in the code?

The format parameter gets populated by the type of content you are asking for (JSON, XML, etc). So, a request parameter called format will get overridden.

See here for more details: Grails 2.3.x: get the value of URL parameters
