My problem is that the url parameters send by the browser in viewparams and
that are automatically split by geoserver in WMS mode and given to its SQL
views that way : SELECT * FROM TABLE where a= ... AND b = ...
(and may change each time the user do a call to that layer through his web
browser. Example : cityCode and year who would varying each call),

aren't taken into account when the a WMTS service is targeted instead.

What troubles me is that if the way of sending parameters is well
documented, and it should not have been an easy thing to develop for the
geoserver team, the way for doing so for a WMTS layer should be known by
someone.

I'm searching the official way to do so. I am not alone over the Internet
who have met that problem. It would be strange if I was discovering it in
the end of 2018, have to do experiments and offer a solution that would
surely not convince my development team. They wouln't allow my code to go in
production if I attempt to use an undocumented practice.

I am not the one who can discovery it now. I must rely on official knowledge
about linking parameters send in WMTS mode and SQL requests in geoserver.

Maybe, if nothing is known, I will open an improvment request, but I don't
have the right (due to our quality checkings here) to attempt an
undocumented trick never experienced by anyone. Because my quality service
would reply to me : "/How many days will it works ?/", "/Where have you read
about this practice ?/". If I reply : /"I have hacked it, but saw noone do
the same before/", my commit will be rejected for sure.

Regards,
