Techniques for providing long uniform resource locators through a secure environment

Abstract

A method and system for providing web resources having long identifiers through a zero trust network environment. The method comprises receiving a request from a client device to access a web resource through a zero trust network environment, wherein the web resource is external to the zero trust network environment, the request including a first uniform resource locator (URL), and the resource further including a second URL having a first length; fetching the web resource based on the first URL; generating a shortened alternate URL based on at least a portion of the second URL, in response to determining that the first length exceeds a predetermined threshold; generating an alternate resource, the alternate resource including the shortened alternate URL replacing the second URL; and providing the alternate resource to the client device.
