- tz: Optional parameter that specifies the timezone of the returned time, following the IANA Time Zone rules, e.g. `America/New_York`.
- req_id: Optional parameter that specifies the request id for tracing.
:::note
URL Encoding. Make sure that parameters are properly encoded. For example, when specifying a timezone you must properly encode special characters. ?tz=Etc/GMT+10 will not work because the <+> plus symbol is recognized as a space in the url. It's best practice to encode all special characters in a parameter. Instead use ?tz=Etc%2FGMT%2B10 for the parameter.
:::
For example, `http://h1.taos.com:6041/rest/sql/test` is a URL to `h1.taos.com:6041` and sets the default database name to `test`.
TDengine supports both Basic authentication and custom authentication mechanisms, and subsequent versions will provide a standard secure digital signature mechanism for authentication.
