How to hide a IDM link behind an alias in AS java

[former_member277617]

Hello,

I want to hide an IDM link behind an alias link.

ex: https://idmuser/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tc_idmwd~workflow/AnonymousEditTask?TaskId=210

I don't want end users to see the above link fully. Can i somehow hide this link (specially it shd not show TaskId )

Any expert opinion on this is highly appreciated.

Regards,

Mahesh

Mahesh,

I don't know that it's really possible to hide the link in a browser.

One can always use an network tool like Netscaler to allow redirects (https://idmuser/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tc_idmwd~workflow/AnonymousEditTask?TaskId=210 --> https://SAPIDM/IDMtask)

And of course when referencing the links in other documents, the link can be concealed in a link anchor)

If there's something else you'd like to be able to do and I am not properly understanding the question, please let me know.

Hello Matt,

Yes I have to redirect the url like below as u said.

https://idmuser/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tc_idmwd~workflow/AnonymousEditTask?TaskId=210 --> https://SAPIDM/IDMtask)

I dont know much abt Netscaler software. Is it available for free? and how to configure the redirect feature?

Cant we redirect the url directly in JAVA WebAS?

Don't really know much about it at all, but I doubt it's free. I would check with your project / comany's network infrastructure team. They might have similar products or best practices for hding long URLs.

Unfortunately, I'm not a AS JAVA exper so I cannot answer that question.
