How can I attach some parameters with request?

How to attach request parameters to current Android HttpUrlConnection call

• I am able to send a request from an Android program to a remote server, but it seems the request has no parameters. How do I attach parameters? Here is my current code: @Override protected String doInBackground(String... theParams) { String myUrl = theParams[0]; final String myEmail = theParams[1]; final String myPassword = theParams[2]; Authenticator.setDefault(new Authenticator() { protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() { return new PasswordAuthentication( myEmail, myPassword.toCharArray()); } }); String response = null; try { final URL url = new URL(myUrl); final HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(); conn.setRequestProperty("login", myEmail); conn.setRequestProperty("password", myPassword); conn.setUseCaches(false); final InputStream is = conn.getInputStream(); final byte[] buffer = new byte[8196]; int readCount; final StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(); while ((readCount = is.read(buffer)) > -1) { builder.append(new String(buffer, 0, readCount)); } response = builder.toString(); Log.d( "After call, response: " , " " + response); } catch (Exception e) { } return response; } So now I am not sure how to make the Authenticator password/login get attached to the request and get sent to the server. Any idea how I can accomplish that? Thanks!

• Answer:

  You simply do this final URL url = new URL(myUrl+"?login="+myEmail+"&password="+myPassword); And you do not need the setRequestProperty lines. Those are actually setting your Http Request's properties and not the query params.
