HTTP Query Parameter Context Extractor
Description
A context extractor that matches against an HTTP query parameter in the request and compares the parameter value with a list of patterns. The first matching pattern defines the resulting context.

Notices:

  1. This extractor matches on any request to the UI application (/ui/app/*) but not other (usually static) /ui resources
  2. Most REST requests are POST requests and usually do not contain any query parameters. This context extractor can not analyze the contents of the POST requests
  3. Only for legacy servlets (e.g. Cronto Servlets), this extractor also matches on form POST parameters

Fallback Context (fallbackContext)
