Set-Cookie in Response, based on Requested URI
Hi Guys
I am trying to set a cookie in a HTTP_RESPONSE, but only when the HTTP_REQUEST is to a specific HTTP::uri
To set a cookie on all http responses is easy, for example:
when HTTP_RESPONSE {
HTTP::cookie insert name "Cookie_Name" value "ClientDetectedtrue"
}
BUT, how do I only set the response cookie on one specific response.
I wanted to do something like ..
when HTTP_RESPONSE{
if {[[HTTP::path] equals "/my.policy"]} {
HTTP::cookie insert name "Cookie_Name" value "ClientDetectedtrue"
}
}
BUT I cannot use the HTTP::path in a HTTP_RESPONSE.
Any ideas on hoe to selectively send a Set-Cookie, in only one specific response within a conversation ?
Thanks
Gary
