Question by Gil G. · Jan 24, 2015 at 05:37 AM ·

Getting value of an encoded url parameter

Hi, 

We have an application, working with Hebrew data. When looking at cookie values, we see information such as follows:

ebagUData=%7B%22userAuthenticated%22%3Atrue%2C%22userLogged%22%3A%7B%22token%22%3A%22a8898440-58c1-40bd-b54b-f2aae2aa92cb%22%2C%22displayName%22%3A%22%D7%A2%D7%95%D7%A4%D7%A8%20%D7%A9%D7%92%D7%99%D7%90%20%22%2C%22userName%22%3A%22025660010%22%2C%22email%22%3A%22%22%2C%22avatarUrl%22%3A%22%22%2C%22userRole%22%3A%22admin%22%2C%22isSiteAdmin%22%3Afalse%2C%22filterID%22%3A0%2C%22schoolID%22%3A%2200000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000%22%2C%22schoolName%22%3A%22%22%2C%22schoolSign%22%3A%22%22%2C%22grade%22%3A0%7D%2C%22authenticationPendingRequirements%22%3A%7B%22updatePassword%22%3Afalse%2C%22updateEmail%22%3Afalse%2C%22pickSchool%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22displayName%22%3A%22%D7%A2%D7%95%D7%A4%D7%A8%20%D7%A9%D7%92%D7%99%D7%90%20%22%2C%22errorCode%22%3A0%7D

While we actually need to capture the URLEncoded values of the displayName in order to tag visits.

How can we do this ?

Gil.

You likely will need to find some method that treats that cookie and converts it to "plain text" and instrument that, but I'm not sure the Dynatrace server/client supports Hebrew characters, so I can't be sure on what the output would be.

Hi Gil

I assume the cookie value is parsed by the application and then handed off to a method as argument? Or maybe its returned as a return value or put into a field on an object. If that is the case I suggest you create a custom sensor for those methods and capture it from there.
