# Expanded Request Cooker Parameters

This section lists the configuration parameters that you can set in the `[ExpandedRequestCooker]` section of the configuration file.

The expanded request cooker is a Lua script that you can use to modify a request after QMS applies any query modifications according to your QMS rules. In this case, QMS processes the original query, and then sends the modified query to the expanded request cooker. The cooker returns a modified version of this query, which QMS forwards to the data Content component.

You can also use a request cooker to modify the query before QMS processes it. See Request Cooker Parameters.
