URL Length

[donat1]

Hi, where can I set up the url-length? It is limited to strong for my needs. It should be 2mb as default in my settings.

Any help is very appreciated. Kind regards

what a strange request! it makes me curious.

url-length?

what are you talking about? url length for what? fetch? navigation?

It is limited to strong for my needs

what do you mean? I don't think I have ever modified anything in this respect.

Ok I will explain:

We are using our CRM in cromite and we need the URLAssociation (protocol handler) "mailto:" for this.

Since we are giving via parameters several email adresses at once (for example for our employees), then the url length matters.

mailto:name1@xy.com,name2@xy.com,name3@xy.com,name4@xy.com

In cromite it cuts the url parameter length by 308 signs.

I must say, that I'm using chrlauncher, since I was not able to set cormite as default browser in another way than that.

wow, interesting!

In cromite it cuts the url parameter length by 308 signs.

please try with:

for (var i=2014; i>1600; i--) {
	var good=1; 
	try {
		location.href='mailto:?body='+'a'.repeat(i)
	} catch (e) {
		good=0;
	} 
	if (good==1) {
		console.log(i+13);
		break;
	}
}

I see 2027 bytes as the maximum length, what do you see?

Yes, in the console I see the same number and I also have all "a". But In the crm I have just 333 "a".

That's the strange thing. But wait, maybe it is not the url itself it is maybe a file read which is limited? Because the parameter changes to something like this, when it is launched to this external handler:

This means, the the group-office assistant is probably changing the mailto url into a hashvalue and this could cause the problem? I don't know. I just know, that this problem is not coming in chrome or firefox, it is only in cromite.

That's why I'm wondering, if there is a limitation when launching an external handler?

put me in a position to try so I can check. can you reproduce a test script?

Theoretically, no, but the chromium code is so huge that a modification by me of even a few flags can be invasive.
In addition, I still have no way of knowing which flags are activated by default in chrome via finch.

Since my server is not reachable over internet, you can use groupoffice as a trial version for free: https://www.group-office.com/trial
And the group-office assistant.exe which is the tool to launch is here: https://repo.group-office.com/downloads/group-office-assistant-windows.exe

sorry, too complex setup (and I don't install anything :). if you can, I need something easy to test.

Okay, maybe I can find out the solution when searching for this problem on the internet. Thanks for your help anyway.
