# Store the Result State

To create a state token from your query results, use the `StoreState` parameter when you issue the query:

    http://localhost:20000/action=Query&Text=apple&StoreState=True

To use document references, rather than `DocIDs`, add the `StoredStateField` parameter:

    http://localhost:20000/action=Query&Text=apple&StoreState=True&StoredStateField=Reference

The returned results include a tag set that holds the token name, for example `<autn:state>CWQ4FJ9LZSE5-6</autn:state>`.

If the query is likely to return a very large data set, you can optimize performance by not printing the query results (assuming that you want only the state token):

    http://localhost:20000/action=Query&Text=apple&StoreState=True&MaxResults=5000&Print=noresults
