    Is there a way to redirect user to random-generated-URL after access from original URL?

    There is an auto-generate URL option mentioned here:

    Thanks for the reply.

    Actually, I have created an auto-generated URL.

    I set the auto-generated URL as /data/$hex$ at the option button.

    I choose to redirect to URL with HTTP code 307 Temporary Redirect, and the target URL is insert /data/.

    But when launched to the original URL, it seems doesn’t work out because it doesn’t redirect to this URL format /data/$hex$.

    Please help.

    The $hex$ goes into the target, not the source.

    Yes, I already set the auto-generated URL as /data/$hex$ at the option button. And I leave blank at target URL at the Redirects button.

    So when I access the original URL, it doesn’t direct me to that targeted format, but directs me to homepage.

    I don’t know what you mean by option and redirects button. Can you include a screenshot?

    Hi, sorry unable to screenshot here.

    What i meant is, I keyin /$hex$/?table_filter= refer to this link autogenerate

    Source URL I keyin ^/my-url/.*$
    Target URL I keyin /$hex$/?table_filter=

    Not sure if I keyin correctly? Becoz when launched the original URL it directs me to home page but not this format ^/my-url/.*$ URL.

    I wish to mask/cloak original URL or make the original URL be complex/shorten URL after accessing it by the user.

    I don’t think you are fully understanding what a redirect is for. It won’t cloak a URL in that way. If a user accesses a URL then it will send them to another URL. The target page needs to exist – it is another page, not the original page.
