Kaizen#42 - Parameters in all GET Requests #API

Hello everyone!
Welcome back to another post in the Kaizen series!
Today, we will discuss all the parameters available in all GET requests.

What is a parameter in a request URL?
A parameter or param is a name/key-value pair that is included in the request URL and it forms the query string.
Consider this example: https://www.myexample.com?id=123
Here, the request URL is https://www.myexample.com, while the parameter is id whose value is 123.
You can also have multiple parameters separated by an ampersand (&) in a request URL like https://www.myexample.com?id=123&name=Boyle

Therefore, the data after the question mark (?) contain the parameters that form the query string, and help to narrow down your response.

Now, let us see the various parameters used in the GET requests of the Zoho CRM APIs.
