passing parameter in webservice API

Question

I am new at webservices and currently able to run my query by calling https://localhost/application/service/v1.0/contacts/account={accountId}
I want to make my url look like https://localhost/application/service/v1.0/contacts?account={accountId}

May I know How to achieve this not using QueryParam ? I am working in spring mvc

@Controller 

public class ContactListResponseController extends BaseWebServiceController 

{ 



 public static final String PATH = "/v" + VERSION + "/contacts/account={accountId}"; 



 @Autowired 

 private ContactService contactService; 



 @RequestMapping(value = PATH, method = RequestMethod.GET) 

 @ResponseBody 

 public ContactListResponseBean doGetMyAssignedAccounts (@PathVariable String accountId, 

                                                       HttpServletRequest request, 

                                                       HttpSession session, 

                                                       HttpServletResponse response, 

                                                          @ModelAttribute(User.USER_REQUEST_VAR) User user) 

  throws Exception 

  { 



    List<ContactSummaryWebServiceBean> contactList = contactService.getContactsListForCallPointWebService(accountId); 

    ContactListResponseBean result = new  ContactListResponseBean(contactList); 

    return result; 

  } 



}

It is a simple thing, try this:

@Controller 
public class ContactListResponseController extends BaseWebServiceController 
{ 

 public static final String PATH = "/v" + VERSION + "/contacts"; 

 @Autowired 
 private ContactService contactService; 

 @RequestMapping(value = PATH, method = RequestMethod.GET) 
 @ResponseBody 
 public ContactListResponseBean doGetMyAssignedAccounts (@RequestParam("account") String accountId, 
                                                       HttpServletRequest request, 
                                                       HttpSession session, 
                                                       HttpServletResponse response, 
                                                          @ModelAttribute(User.USER_REQUEST_VAR) User user) 
  throws Exception 
  { 

    List<ContactSummaryWebServiceBean> contactList = contactService.getContactsListForCallPointWebService(accountId); 
    ContactListResponseBean result = new  ContactListResponseBean(contactList); 
    return result; 
  } 

}
