Hi Christian Thanks for your reply. In the meantime I've found a workaround:

http://localhost:8080/rest?run=query&n=3,4,5

declare variable $n as xs:string external := ""; declare variable $n_arr as xs:integer* := tokenize($n, ",") ! xs:integer(.);

Regards Csaba

Hi Csaba,

The variable types of the REST API are limited to atomic values. With BaseX 11, however, it will be possible to bind multiple values [1]:

http://localhost:8080/rest?run=query&n=3&n=4&n=5

(: XQuery file: query.xq :) declare variable $n as xs:integer* external; array { $n }

You can try the latest stable snapshot [2].

Best, Christian

Hi

I'm wondering if this is at all possible... I defined an array variable in my XQUERY:

declare variable $ca as array(xs:integer) external := [];

How can I assign a value (e.g [1,2]) to this variable through the URL? I have already tried: http://host:port/rest/dbname?run=query.xq&$ca%5B%5D=1&$ca%5B%5D=2 That didn't work. Neither did this: http://host:port/rest/dbname?run=query.xq&$ca=1,2

Any hints are much appreciated. Thanks Csaba
