title: Twilio TwiML How do I pass URL parameters to TwiML script?
body: <p>I want to pass a parameter via URL for TwiML to read from when it addresses the person on the other end of the phone. I can't seem to get it to work right. I've tried all sorts of things.</p>
  
  <p>Here is my ASP.NET VB Code...</p>
  
  <pre><code>Dim XClient As New TwilioRestClient(accountSid:=accountSID, authToken:=authToken)
  XClient.InitiateOutboundCall(from:=From, [to]:=SendTo, url:="http://mywebsite.com/TestURI.xml?test=Todd")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is my XML...</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
  &lt;Response&gt;
      &lt;Say voice="alice"&gt;$test&lt;/Say&gt;
      &lt;Pause length="1"/&gt;
      &lt;Say voice="alice"&gt;Do you enjoy hotdogs? I do.&lt;/Say&gt;
      &lt;Pause length="1"/&gt;
      &lt;Say voice="alice"&gt;Please work so that I can enjoy my lunch in peace!&lt;/Say&gt;
  &lt;/Response&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I get this TwiML script to report "Todd" from the URL? Any help is much appreciated. Thank you!</p>
