Issue with URL parameter in "Preview" window after 2024 release

GeeteshSingh07

Hi Everyone,

In Feb 2024 release, "Manage URL Status" is introduced, I enabled some of parameters:

- Saved it & opened in "Preview" mode. The URL include these parameters.

- Don't close Preview window.

- Now, disabled these parameters >> Save the changes.

- Refresh the Preview window (which is already opened) in browser. The URL still include these parameters (even after disabling it). --> Incorrect Behavior

- Open the Preview window again from Experience Builder, the URL parameter is correct

Hi @GeeteshSingh07 

Thank you for the feedback on this new feature, really look forward to hearing more from you!

Manage URL status is designed to control which URL parameters appear in the app's URL at run time. Turning a parameter off does not remove its function; it just means that the parameter does not appear in the URL.

In your case, the URL parameters were included when you interacted with the app. When you disable some parameters (say, map viewpoint), you can click the preview button again - at this time you can see the viewpoint won't be added when you move the map extent.

Refreshing the preview window which is already opened in the browser does not make any difference, because the URL parameters are already in the URL. Remember you can always manually add any URL parameters to change the app appearance, even if the related options are disabled in Manage URL status.
