Thanks for the example. I am new to Jasper and can't quite figure it all out. I think I am missing some config settings. The first difference in my tests and you file is I have a that gets inserted by studio. I have added the follwing "12" "http://127.0.0.1:8080/candidatemanager/app/rws/misc/test7?locationId=" +$P{locationId} To use my rest service, based on what I could see from your example. But it does not seem to be overriding the file / url from the default data adapter being inserted by studio. Everytime I use preview it uses the values set in JSON file Adapter file / url text box. How do I get the url set in the parameter element above to be used instead?

I can get the JSON Data Adapter to query a REST service by setting File / URL: in the Jasper Studio Data Adapter wizard to something like "http://127.0.0.1:8080/testrestservice". But how do you append user provided parameters to the base url so that the url used to acutally retrieve the data would be something like "http://127.0.0.1:8080/testrestservice?name=Jack".
