Hi Amine,

In our case, the "/portal/apps/sites/" URI includes other apps that are affecting other parts of the application. In order to address this issue, we have specified the URI to include "/#/home", as it is a requirement for our case.

BR,

    Kashifr because # isn't passed to the destination this cannot be corrected on the F5 side.

    I understand. I think there may be some requests initiated by Javascript that are going behind the scenes to update your content. You should use developer tools and see if there is any request related to your specific URI, if you find any, then try to use it in your iRule
