B4J Question [ Jserver ] Protecting the content of an external link to the jserver, using jserver, would it be possible?

[Waldemar Lima]

Guys, I have an external link from the b4x server generated in BI software ( Microsoft power Bi ) , however, it only generates a single and fixed link, I want to generate a link through the b4j server that grants unique access to the user who accesses it, if someone enters, the link is invalidated... I would say it is similar to a link shortener, however, without redirecting, loading everything through the b4j server page. Is it possible to do this using jserver?

Perhaps you need to implement a reverse proxy in jServer for protecting the content of an external link.

Of course. Either do it with a server filter or do it directly in the server handler. Check req.FullRequestUri or RequestUri and decide whether you want to handle it or not.

I think it seems like generating an activation link for registered user. When a user registered, he/she receives an email with the activation link then once he/she clicked on the link, it will trigger the server handler to regenerate a new activation code and updates the database. If the user click the old link again or another user got the old link and click on it, it will not work.
