Parse.com cloud code GET function with parameters?

I am writing a cloud code function in parsing and I am trying to figure out how to handle parameters in a GET url.

So I have a simple function:

Parse.Cloud.define("someFunction", function(request, response) {
    //  how can I use GET parameters here??

});

How to rename "someFunction"

to handle GET parameters so that I can use them in cloud code function logic?

so for example i want to be able to pass the name string: "myName"

to GET

https://api.parse.com/1/functions/someFunction name = myName

Any simple example? I've been looking for a while when I couldn't find it.

thank

EDIT: So I changed my function to look like this:

Parse.Cloud.define("someFunction", function(request, response) {
    //  how can I use GET parameters here??

    var name = request.params.name

    response.success("the name = " + name)
});

then I call it like this: https://api.parse.com/1/functions/someFunction?name=someName

I'll be back:

{"result":"the name = **undefined**"}

Cloud functions are called with a POST request, not a GET request. Here is a simple example for cURL, taken from the documentation [1].

curl -X POST \
  -H "X-Parse-Application-Id: YOUR_APP_ID" \
  -H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key: YOUR_REST_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name":"John Doe"}' \
  https://api.parse.com/1/functions/someFunction

try calling Cloud from JS layer ...



Parse.initialize(appId, jsId);

p =  Parse.Cloud.run('someFunc', {"name":refToName}).then(function(result) {
