Use of # in service URL

[Shawn Cutting]

Good Day,

I am running into an issue with a service URL that includes a "#"... example like this:

https://service-site.com/#/login-page

The issue is that after CAS authenticates, it is returning the URL of:

https://service-site.com/?ticket=ST-370468-randomticketstuff#/login-page

(note the #/login-page at the end of the ST info).  How can I get CAS to return back to the original URL?

Thanks for your insight.

Shawn

Shawn,

Is the '#' really bare like that? And the continuation of the path, '/login-page', following it?

Is it possible for the client to encode the url (this may / may not would work)?

Thanks for your input, Ray.  Yes, that is how the URL is.  I have a request into the client to see if there is a way to eliminate the #.

I see this as part of the code (https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/master/core/cas-server-core-services-authentication/src/main/java/org/apereo/cas/authentication/principal/DefaultResponse.java).

In getRedirectResponse method does what you are saying. I am not sure if url encoding can handle this.
