Not going to original URL after logging in

Hello,

 

I have a URL that I send out to my customer(URL is not static and changes).   They click the link which takes them to the APM login page, but after authenticating it brings them to the main IIS page of the my website instead of the URL I sent them.

 

Is there any way to have it go back to the original URL after logging in?

 

Original URL..

https://abc.xyc123.com/page#/worksheet/abc00021

 

F5 APM prompts for log in..

https://abc.xyc.com/my.policy#/worksheet/abc00021

 

After logon.. (missing the specific resource)

https://abc.xyc.com/page#

 

Thanks

    Hello.

     

    The text after '#' character usually works as an anchor to reference sections in your HTML page.

    But this information is never sent to the server (F5 in this case), this is preserve only at a javascript (client-side) level.

     

    When you introduces an intermedian page to reach you final request is imposible to keep the context in your last query.

     

    So the answer is: "You cannot put '#/worksheet/abc00021' tag in your query after the logon"

    Regards,

    Dario.
