Hi!
I am trying to link an external link (link below) to a teaser component but it's not working. I validated the url with the linker checker as well and it's valid. If I remove the # after spa in the url it works. Not sure why 2 # in the url are causing issue? Please advise
Hello @reddyishanvi
The second # in the URL https://experience.adobe.com/#/@abc/so:genera8/analytics/spa/#/workspace/edit/62bb42dc03db540279a7db is converted to %23 . It is because the # character is used in URLs to indicate an anchor or fragment identifier.
The fragment identifier is used to identify a specific section within a web page. When the browser encounters a # character in a URL, it treats the following characters as a fragment identifier and navigates to the specified section of the web page.
However, when a # character appears after the fragment identifier, it is no longer considered part of the fragment identifier but as a literal character. Therefore, to include a literal # character in a URL, it needs to be encoded as %23.
In the URL you provided, the second # character appears after the fragment identifier (#/workspace/edit/62bb42dc03db540279a7db), so it is encoded as %23 to be treated as a literal character rather than as part of the fragment identifier.
