KB30976: How to get the HTTPServletRequest object from ContainerServices interface using the MicroStrategy Web SDK.

In scenarios where users would like to verify the incoming URL in the handlesAuthenticationRequestMethod() for the ESM, they should first get the HTTPServletRequest object that contans the required information.
The code snippet below shows how to get the HttpServletRequest object from ContainerServices interface:

public int handlesAuthenticationRequest(RequestKeys reqKeys, ContainerServices cntSvcs, int reason) {
    HttpServletRequest request = ((ServletContainerServices)cntSvcs).getRequest();
    String requestURL = request.getRequestURI();
    if(requestURL.equalsIgnoreCase("/812/servlet/mstrWebAdmin")){
        return ExternalSecurity.USE_CUSTOM_LOGIN_PAGE;
        else {
            return ExternalSecurity.COLLECT_SESSION_NOW;
        }
	}
}

 
NOTE: This approach would only work for Web Universal.
