Monitoring - Web - # in URL not parsing

[[email protected]]

I am attempting to create a web scenario (in Zabbix 4.0.0), or 3, that uses a URL format similar to www.foo.com/bar#/login. I suspect the # is related to AngualrJS non-HTML5 browser compliance, however Zabbix truncates the URL at the #, and my scenarios fail. I am not able to alter the URL, I am not in control of the site or it's development.

Does anyone know if Zabbix can handle this URL format with some kind of string formatting or extensions?

I have searched the forums for:
angularjs web scenario
hash in url parsing
octothorpe in url parsing
angularjs url parsing
web url #
and found nothing.

Thank you,
Richard

Is it possible to confirm that Zabbix is definitely not able to parse these URLs, even if there is no known workaround, that way I can start investigating other tools?

Hi,

I have the same issue.
I think that it could work by putting your URL into quote mark like:
"www.foo.com/bar#/login"
If it doesn't work you can just add a back slash like:
"www.foo.com/bar\#/login"

Maybe you already tried it 'cause it's just string management but I tried it and it seems to work fine...

Lmk.

Hello,

Is there another way?
I am using Zabbix 3.4 - an upgrade to a new version is currently not possible.

If I attach the "" the mistake comes:

"Invalid parameter "URL" unacceptible URL"

Even the backslash hasn't changed anything.

is there another option here ?

I cannot use web scenario because before you can enter any of my sites, you would have to pass another URL which is a LOGIN page. So if i monitor a say "page.domain.com" it will instead be monitoring "Page2.domain.com" because that is where you have to login. Any ideas how to do network monitoring differently or make zabbix pass the login page ?
