Does not work when using custom virtual proxies together with SAML authentication #1

Open mountaindude opened 8 years ago

Just some info for others who might stumble onto the same thing..

When using SAML authentication against a custom end point/virtual proxy (using Sense enterprise), the extension will not realise this, but instead try to retrieve the formatting CSV file straight from the Sense's default virtual proxy.

I.e:

You normally access Sense via https://my.domain.com/production The extension will however try to get the formatting file from https://my.domain.com/.

If you, like us, have intentionally disabled that default virtual proxy to force everyone using the /production endpoint instead, the extension will not format the data as intended.

Easy fix: Just hard code in a "/production" (no quotes) in the extension's source code, to force it to use the correct URL.
