Hi @mim

the type of parameters that are relevant in this case are function parameters and not query parameters.

There is one in step "Added custom" in your nem-query. 

It produces a dynamic URL and that's not supported in the service. Therfore you have to use a relative path record in your query. See details here: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=15&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjrkfSx6av...
