Hide parameters in query string

[NeoInJS]

I have link  (which I use to pass parameters) in HTML Block in a tabular form which redirects me to a Details page.

Is there away I can hide the those parameters in the URL?

Hi NeoInJS,

I have an idea that might work.

Instead of using the HTML block, use the details page option in your tabular report. Once in the details section, add a virtual field and go to the Advanced tab. On load, make the value to be the one you are trying to pass and enable On exit, please save the name of the On exit parameter as you will use it in the next page. Then add a new HTML block and autosubmit the datapage.

Now, in your separate Details page, the one where you are receiving the parameters at, make your On exit parameter match with your search criteria. This way you would pass parameters internally in Caspio and they wont be displayed in the URL.

I hope it helps or at least gives you an idea.

Hi NeoInJS,

Sending an HTTP POST request comes to mind, but this method requires a back-end server to fetch the posted data.

Here are the alternatives:

1. Cookies
2. Browser locationStorage or sessionStorage

 

For the first option, cookies must be enabled in your browser.

For the second option, you can take a look at my old forum post:

Hope this helps.
