Pass current URL parameters to Cloud Function Python API on IBM Cloud

Question

I'm new and trying to create a Cloud Function on IBM Cloud. My API is working fine on "hello world" only. I need to pass the parameters from URL to manipulate it into my Python API. Like:

URL: https://fa75e0fa.eu-gb.apigw.appdomain.cloud/testapi/test1?id=11

I need to pass the value of id=11 at the end of the above URL into my python code (Python 3.70).

I have now this:

#
#
# main() will be run when you invoke this action
#
# @param Cloud Functions actions accept a single parameter, which must be a JSON object.
#
# @return The output of this action, which must be a JSON object.
#
#
import sys

def main(dict):
    return { 'message': 'Hello world' }

The output is: { "message": "Hello world" }

I tried:

import sys
import urllib3, requests, json
import requests
import os

def main(dict):
    id1=requests.GET.get('id')

    return { 'message': 'Hello world',
             'id': json.loads(id1.text)

    }

The output is:

Activation ID: 4e97b3be9b2b49f397b3be9b2b99f34d Results: { "error": "module 'requests' has no attribute 'GET'" } Logs:

stderr: " ]

Can you please help? Thanks.

def main(args):
    arg1=args.get("arg1")
    myarg=args.get("anotherarg")

    return {"one": arg1, "two": myarg}

The parameters are passed in the environment which you can easily access. They are not part of a request structure. arg1 would be your id :

import sys
import urllib3, requests, json
import requests
import os

def main(dict):
    id1=dict.get('id')

    return { 'message': 'Hello world',
             'id': id1)

    }
