Need to configure Modal dialogue window buttons to send http request using POST method.
We have a requirement to not to send parameters in the URL when we click on Modal Dialogue window buttons. Looks like by default Modal Dialogue buttons action submits using GET method.
I would like to change the method of sending request using POST method. Please let me if there is anyway where i can configure this setting?
Thanks,
Mohan

Hello Mohan,
Are you sure the default modal dialog buttons are using GET? Can you point me to your configuration. I checked in PRPC 6.3 and Pega 7 and I see POST requests not GET on Fiddler.
Thanks,

Hi Sunny, thanks for your response
Yes you are Correct, we have observed that in our environment (PRPC 6.1 SP2) where it's POST. But somehow the request URL is appended with query parameters as below:
IS there any way where i can avoid these query parameters on click of Modal Dialog button?

It'd seem so but if you look closely, there is no data that is being sent as query parameter. This is still a POST request and query parameters are used to limit the scope of this POST request. Form data is sent in message body and not as query parameter. I admit that it is a tad too long but this is by design. One solution of your problem could be using OOTB URL Obfuscation. But, that would be a very big design change.
