Search Appliance SBE
Sometimes submitting the form directly is not sufficient. Forms on
web pages can contain dynamic hidden variables, such as
a viewstate
for session tracking. This means the form must be
opened, filled out, and submitted, instead of simply submitting a
pre-defined action URL.
This is achievable with the Custom Unprimer Variables setting. Instead of setting Custom Unprimer URL to the action of the form, you set it to the URL of the page that contains the form. Custom Unprimer Variables is a URL-encoded list of name/value pairs to set on the Custom Unprimer URL page.
When Custom Unprimer Variables is set, the Custom Unprimer URL is fetched, and then the variables specified in Custom Unprimer Variables are used on the form, and then that form is submitted.
the Search Appliance will set the HTTP(S) Referer
header
for each unprimer URL to the URL of the previously URL so
systems that require Referer
s will work. If the first
unprimer URL also requires a Referer
add an unprimer
URL before that so it picks up that as the Referer
.
This does not affect the use of Referer
in the main walk.
