Hi Jingtao,

Yes, that is an intended workflow. In fact, the "NCSS Request URL" box at the 
bottom of the page is meant to facilitate that usage. Note that the URL updates 
each time you select/deselect a variable or change a subsetting parameter. The 
reference documentation [1] also details how you might build up a request in a 
script.

Cheers,
Christian
