This document gives an overview of which URL-parameters can be used to influence MapComplete.



 What is a URL parameter? 
--------------------------



"URL-parameters are extra parts of the URL used to set the state.

For example, if the url is `https://mapcomplete.osm.be/cyclofix?lat=51.0&lon=4.3&z=5&test=true#node/1234`, the URL-parameters are stated in the part between the `?` and the `#`. There are multiple, all separated by `&`, namely: 



  - The url-parameter `lat` is `51.0` in this instance
  - The url-parameter `lon` is `4.3` in this instance
  - The url-parameter `z` is `5` in this instance
  - The url-parameter `test` is `true` in this instance


Finally, the URL-hash is the part after the `#`. It is `node/1234` in this case.
