The Parameter Extractor extension is listed among the other extension downloads on the GeoServer download page.

The installation process is similar to other GeoServer extensions:

1. Login, and navigate to About & Status > About GeoServer and check Build Information to determine the exact version of GeoServer you are running.

2. Visit the website download <download> page, change the Archive tab, and locate your release.

   From the list of Miscellaneous extensions download Request parameters extractor.

   • {{ release }} example: params-extractor
   • {{ version }} example: params-extractor

   Verify that the version number in the filename corresponds to the version of GeoServer you are running (for example {{ release }} above).

3. Extract the contents of the archive into the WEB-INF/lib directory in GeoServer. Make sure you do not create any sub-directories during the extraction process.

4. Restart GeoServer.
