# Referencing request values
There are four types of request values:
1. HTTP Request Header values
```json
{
"source": "header",
"name": "Header-Name"
}
```
2. HTTP Query parameters
```json
{
"source": "url",
"name": "parameter-name"
}
```
3. HTTP Request parameters
```json
{
"source": "request",
"name": "method"
}
```
```json
{
"source": "request",
"name": "remote-addr"
}
```
4. Payload (JSON or form-value encoded)
```json
{
"source": "payload",
"name": "parameter-name"
}
```
*Note:* For JSON encoded payload, you can reference nested values using the dot-notation.
For example, if you have following JSON payload
```json
{
"commits": [
{
"commit": {
"id": 1
}
}, {
"commit": {
"id": 2
}
}
]
}
```
You can reference the first commit id as
```json
{
"source": "payload",
"name": "commits.0.commit.id"
}
```
If the payload contains a key with the specified name "commits.0.commit.id", then the value of that key has priority over the dot-notation referencing.
4. XML Payload
Referencing XML payload parameters is much like the JSON examples above, but XML is more complex.
Element attributes are prefixed by a hyphen (`-`).
Element values are prefixed by a pound (`#`).
Take the following XML payload:
```xml
<app>
<users>
<user id="1" name="Jeff" />
<user id="2" name="Sally" />
</users>
<messages>
<message id="1" from_user="1" to_user="2">Hello!!</message>
</messages>
</app>
```
To access a given `user` element, you must treat them as an array.
So `app.users.user.0.name` yields `Jeff`.
Since there's only one `message` tag, it's not treated as an array.
So `app.messages.message.id` yields `1`.
To access the text within the `message` tag, you would use: `app.messages.message.#text`.
If you are referencing values for environment, you can use `envname` property to set the name of the environment variable like so
```json
{
"source": "url",
"name": "q",
"envname": "QUERY"
}
```
to get the QUERY environment variable set to the `q` parameter passed in the query string.
# Special cases
If you want to pass the entire payload as JSON string to your command you can use
```json
{
"source": "entire-payload"
}
```
for headers you can use
```json
{
"source": "entire-headers"
}
```
and for query variables you can use
```json
{
"source": "entire-query"
}
```
