Hey @RoiLarrenceAmatong,

The `route` tagged template literal strips everything after the `?` in each parameter to prevent query string injection attacks in Forge apps. You will need to make a query where the `?` is not part of the interpolated parameters, for example:

```javascript
route`${configData.URL_CONFIG_JIRA_URLS.BASE_URL}${path}?${query}`
// or
route`${configData.URL_CONFIG_JIRA_URLS.BASE_URL}${path}?accountId=${accountId}`
// etc.

```

See the documentation on `route` [here](https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/forge/runtime-reference/product-fetch-api/#route) for more information. In case it helps with debugging, you should be able to see the resultant url that is being requested by running:

```javascript
console.log(route`${url}`);

```

Hope that helps, let me know if you have any issues.  
Sam
