Testing query parameter without value in SoapUI - how can I do this?

Question

For instance, if I want to test the following URL:

GET http://example.com?api=testAPI&$metadata

How can I append the $metadata to the URL without adding a value to it? It won't work if it has a value.

For framing the below URL,&nbsp;GET http://example.com?api=testAPI&amp;$metadata&nbsp;Solution 1:I guess you should keep 'api' as query parameter and should hit the request as "GET http://example.com?api=testAPI" and later using 'RequestFilter.filterRequest'&nbsp;option, you should append the later part '&amp;$metadata' to the endpoint using Groovy script.&nbsp;Solution 2:Pass the value of 'api' query parameter as "testAPI&amp;$metadata"&nbsp;Main reason is - SoapUI doesn't send a quary parameter which is not having any value set to it. I expect this&nbsp;to be correct behavior. We are just modding the request to satisfy our needs.&nbsp;Thanks,Samy&nbsp;

That didn't have what I was looking for - only query parameters that have values, which I understand how to do already.

Is your query parameter name is "$metadata"? Does it contain any value or is it a variable? why do you want to send just parameter without any value?
