Query Result Export
When editing an output mapping, you can define query result export options. Query Request Export feature must be used in conjunction with boxcarring. It allows individual queries executed in a boxcarring session to communicate with each other. The concept is 'exporting' a specific result element so that the next calling query will get that result element as a query parameter. So, if you've two queries, namely, 'query1' and 'query2' that's executed sequentially in a boxcarring session, and if 'query1' has a specific result element and that element is exported with the name 'foo', then 'query2' also gets a query param named 'foo'. So when this boxcarring session is executed, the query1's exported value will be passed into query2 as an input parameter.
