Protocol restriction when modifying views

Post by Nagiusz »

From some time, when adding/modifying a view, the popup will not allow to submit changes without protocol prefix: "Include the protocol when specifying a URL."

In fact, the protocol is not really needed, the link could be just "/nagiosxi/..." as it is related to the Nagios server only. It used to work in this way for a long time, the restriction has been introduced in one of the latest releases. It is annoying in case we import database data from test to production instance and have to manually change every view after on.

Could this restriction be turned off?

HI @Nagiusz,

Thanks for reaching out. I see the problem and will create an Issue to get this fixed.

NOTE: It is possible that this was changed because of a security issue. If that is the case we will have to review whether this can be handled on the backend. If it is possible to address, it will appear in the CHANGELOG with this tag [GL:XI#2062].
Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

-Laura
