Hello,

I'm using the code below, enter ../ it's redirected to "Access Denied",  any idea why? I don't see any error logged in the Tomcat log.

a!localVariables(
  local!searchKeyword,
  a!columnsLayout(
    columns: {
      a!columnLayout(
        contents: {
          a!textField(
            label: "Search By Keyword",
            value: local!searchKeyword,
            saveInto: {
              local!searchKeyword,
              a!save(
                local!searchKeyword,
                trim(local!searchKeyword)
              )
            },
            refreshAfter: "KEYPRESS"
          )
        }
      )
    }
  )
)

    Tried to replicate this. I do not see the behaviour you describe.

    When does this redirect happen?

    April 10, 2025

    1. Redirected to "Access Denied" upon entering ../ ( with refreshAfter "KEYPRESS")

    2. Redirected to "Access Denied" upon entering ../ and clicking enter (without refreshAfter property)

    I do not know of any Appian function that could do this. Can the be a browser issue?

    Hi [mention:6e0fd16d2aba4fdfbd076dfe63e1d8df:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] 
    Are you using only this component on site or using this, are you filtering any data in record and displaying on site.

    Filtering record data using the value entered in search field, but observed the same error with the textbox too.

    If possible can you send the remaining code like how you are filtering, using query and filter or read only grid record filter. Don't know exactly but I'm thinking there might be a security issue throwing that error when you are attempting search on records.

    Looks like this issue is happening in 23.4 and resolved in higher versions.

    Thank you everyone for the responses and suggestions.
