GET request with a body, Google Script App

I would like to make a GET request with Google Script App on a RestAPI. I was planning on using the function fetchAPI(url, params). Here is the list of arguments I can use in parameters: params arguments from https://developers.google.com/

I don't see "body" in the list of arguments. Does that mean it's not possible to make a GET request WITH BODY with the Google script App?

Thanks for you help!

An example of using UrlFetchApp: In this example, you can GET the JSON content.

function CallAPI() {
  
  // 
  
  var token = ""; // Example key
  
  // Call the API
  var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch("https://api.something");
  
  // Analyze JSON
  var content = response.getContentText();
  
  Logger.log(content);
  
  var obj = JSON.parse(content, function (key, value) {
  if (key == "status") {
    Logger.log("value status is = " + value);
  } else if (key == "origin")
  {
   Logger.log("The value origin is= " + value);
  }
}); 
  
}

According to the official documentation UrlFetchApp:

GET requests do not accept a payload body.

"the payload (that is, the POST body) for the request. Certain HTTP methods (for example, GET) do not accept a payload."
