NimbostratusHow to parse a guid from a uri to using in a redirection
I need to keep the guid of a uri and redirect to a new uri using the guid
Whats the best way to accomplish this.
original uri:
en/server/GUID-876D26ED-3B49-41EB-8470-78D3F60F1360addHistory=...
when HTTP_REQEUST {
set guid [findstr [HTTP::query] "docid=" 6 &]
if { $guid ne "" } {
HTTP::redirect "http://host.example.com/en/server/$guid"
}
}
Naturally you should substitute an appropriate name for "host.example.com". This will not redirect if the docid query parameter is not found, and it makes no effort to validate the GUID.
jmartinez_44554Thanks for the reply. I'm getting this error when trying to save the rule. 01070151:3: Rule [/Common/livelibrarytest_redirects] error: /Common/livelibrarytest_redirects:1: error: [unknown event (HTTP_REQEUST)][when HTTP_REQEUST { set guid [findstr [HTTP::query] "docid=" 6 &] if { $guid ne "" } { HTTP::redirect "http://host.example.com/en/server/$guid" } }]
