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. Actually there are many ways to
achieve it.
