Retrieving the completed REST URL in Groovy

I'm using Template Resource Parameters on my REST Resource and I need to use the completed the URL that is sent in the HTTP Header as part of my authentication routine. My endpoint is http://www.co...

Ideally I'd like to use the method/function that updates the highlighted bit.

I've noticed that the parameters aren't always in the same order when I retrieve them (I think it's because it's a MAP and not an Array?)

This means when I sign the URL before the TestStep is run, I can end up with a different URL sent to the Service, and my authentication fails
//They are QUERY parameters
  def queryString = "?"
   restTestRequest.params.eachWithIndex{ param, i ->
     if((queryString.length() != 1) && (param.value.value != '') )      
      queryString += "&${param.value.name}=${param.value.value}"
      
   //testString = "${param.value.value}"
   else if (param.value.value != ''){
    queryString += "${param.value.name}=${param.value.value}"
   }
   }
   path += queryString

After the above code I get:
Path is now /data/app/ws/rest/companies/role/search/v1.0?page=1&q=brown&type=DDIR

When the TestStep runs the URL is
/data/app/ws/rest/companies/role/search/v1.0?q=brown&page=1&type=DDIR

the parameters are in a different order so my HmacSHA256 signature ends up being different

I've tried restTestRequest.setPath(path) and ended up with further weirdness I need to clarify

thanks
