Unable to read UTM Params in AEM Cloud Publish Instance , But able to read these params in AEM Cloud Author and local author & local publish

AEM Cloud : utm_source , utm_medium query parameters unable to fetch these values from slingHttpServletRequest object using request.getQueryString() but whereas other parameters  are showing up ex : utm2_source , a=b .

 

 Ex URL : https://publish-p23444-exxxys.adobeaemcloud.com/content/xyz/abcd/en.html?utm_source=xyz&utm_medium=cpc&param=value&lid=1234&ds_s_kwgid=1234&ds_url_v=2&gclid=Te1234&a=b&utm2_source=abcd.

 

From above URL utm_source & utm_medium  are missing in  request.getQueryString() only in publish and able to get in author.

Hi @asateesh ,

So the utm parameters are getting passed to publisher instance from dispatcher as per logs . 

  • For UTM params, request.getQueryString() is it  returning null or some other object? 
  •  What is your current /ignoreUrlParams  configuration for the dispatcher  ?

It may be an encoding issue also. Have you checked if you are passing another query param with an _ character ,  are you able to get the value ?

 

Thanks,

Somen.

Hi @asateesh 
Please check https://github.com/adobe/aem-dispatcher-optimizer-tool/blob/main/docs/Rules.md#dot---the-dispatcher-publish-farm-cache-should-have-its-ignoreurlparams-rules-configured-in-an-allow-list-manner 

 

It could be by design, since these are known param and not suppose to be used at server side.

 

But you can try to add ignoreUrlParams block 

 

/ignoreUrlParams {
  /0002 { /glob "utm_source" /type "deny" }  
}

    Thank you for replying Arun ,

     

    I want the request parameters to passed to publish instance the above configuration you are asking me to 

     

    ignoreUrlParams to cache the url even if we have this query param passed through URL.
     
    My Ask is the UTM parameters are getting passed to publish instance ( checked the Publish AEM Access  Log ) but when I am trying to read from request.getQueryString() other query parameters I am able to get accept the UTM parameters.
