Retrofit 2 - URL Query Parameter

I am using a query parameters to set the values needed by the Google Maps API.

The issue is I do not need the & sign for the first query parameter.

@GET("/maps/api/geocode/json?")
    Call<JsonObject> getLocationInfo(@Query("address") String zipCode,
                                             @Query("sensor") boolean sensor,
                                             @Query("client") String client,
                                             @Query("signature") String signature);

Retrofit generates:

&address=90210&sensor=false&client=gme-client&signature=signkey

which causes the call the fail when I need it to be

address=90210&sensor=false&client=gme-client&signature=signkey

How do I fix this?

I am new to retrofit and I am enjoying it. So here is a simple way to understand it for those that might want to query with more than one query: The ? and & are automatically added for you.

Interface:

 public interface IService {

      String BASE_URL = "https://api.test.com/";
      String API_KEY = "SFSDF24242353434";

      @GET("Search") //i.e https://api.test.com/Search?
      Call<Products> getProducts(@Query("one") String one, @Query("two") String two,    
                                @Query("key") String key)
}

It will be called this way. Considering you did the rest of the code already.

  Call<Results> call = service.productList("Whatever", "here", IService.API_KEY);

For example, when a query is returned, it will look like this.

//-> https://api.test.com/Search?one=Whatever&two=here&key=SFSDF24242353434

 public interface IService { 

  String BASE_URL = "https://api.demo.com/";

  @GET("Login") //i.e https://api.demo.com/Search? 
  Call<Products> getUserDetails(@Query("email") String emailID, @Query("password") String password)

} 

It will be called this way. Considering you did the rest of the code already.

Call<Results> call = service.getUserDetails("[email protected]", "Password@123");

For example when a query is returned, it will look like this.

https://api.demo.com/[email protected]&password=Password@123

If you specify @GET("foobar?a=5"), then any @Query("b") must be appended using &, producing something like foobar?a=5&b=7.

If you specify @GET("foobar"), then the first @Query must be appended using ?, producing something like foobar?b=7.

That's how Retrofit works.

When you specify @GET("foobar?"), Retrofit thinks you already gave some query parameter, and appends more query parameters using &.

Remove the ?, and you will get the desired result.
