Query.toString() method

Gets the absolute URL for this location.

The toString() method returns a URL that is ready to be put into a browser, curl command, or a refFromURL() call. Since all of those expect the URL to be url-encoded, toString() returns an encoded URL.

Append '.json' to the returned URL when typed into a browser to download JSON-formatted data. If the location is secured (that is, not publicly readable), you will get a permission-denied error.

Signature:

toString(): string;

Returns:

string

The absolute URL for this location.
