I am using ibm portal server. there is a link which is coming from external link. the url that is coming is as below http://localhost.us.deloitte.com:10040/wps/myportal/home/gm_assignee_label/gm_eoa_page?invoker=esb?agsnid=32984?asgnmtid=50085

home,gm_assignee_label,gm_eoa_page are friendly urls given to 3 different pages. things after the ? are the key value parameters.

i want to retrieve these paramters when i click on the link above and my page gets loaded.

i tried the below link as given by ibm. but it didnt help me http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wpzosdoc/v6r1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.wp.zos.doc/dev/pltcom_pubrndrprm.html

Don't know if this is the best solution, but it does work.

com.ibm.ws.portletcontainer.portlet.PortletUtils.getHttpServletRequest(request).getParameter("agsnid")

The URL is invalid. The query string parameter pairs should be separated by &, not ?. The ? is only the separator between the request URI and request query string.

So the link should rather have been http://localhost.us.deloitte.com:10040/wps/myportal/home/gm_assignee_label/gm_eoa_page?invoker=esb&agsnid=32984&asgnmtid=50085 in order to be able to access agsnid and asgnmtid as request parameters. Otherwise they will be part of invoker parameter.
