Hi james_scee 

If you're trying to read the referrer from a freemarker component I think you should use

Hi

 

Thanks for your reply, that seems to give errors, I get

 

FreeMarker template error
The following has evaluated to null or missing: ==> http.request.parameters.name.referrer....

 

When I use

http.request.referrer!

 

and 

 

http.request.parameters.name.referrer!

 

http.request.referrer! works, but doesn't get me the SSO referrer. When someone signs in the get sent to another site eg

 

Lithium->SSO Page->(sign in)->back to Lithium

 

I don't get the sign in ref, just a blank

 

http.request.parameters.name.referrer! is always blank
