It is a simple passthrough of parameters you passed over to the http request. eg: If you want to read a feed with say an extra attribute (date) which you will know in runtime you can make the http request with command=full-import&date=some_date. The date can be consumed in the url as url="http://xyz.com?a=b&thedate=${dataimporter.request.date}
if you could give me a sample on how the diffrent urls look like I may be able to suggest you something.
