HOTFIX 202507080 for WebCenter 25.07

Release date

Friday, October 23, 2026

Symptoms

When users repeatedly navigated dashboard tabs and loaded nested dashboards, dashboard state parameters were continuously appended to the internal returnURL used by the LOADDASHBOARD request. This caused the URL length to grow beyond the supported limit, resulting in an HTTP 400 Bad Request response and preventing dashboard content from loading correctly.

• Dashboard pages failed to load after extensive navigation through dashboard tabs and nested dashboards.

• Users received HTTP 400 Bad Request errors.

• Browser Developer Tools showed failed LOADDASHBOARD requests.

• Console errors such as: Unexpected token '<', "<!doctype "... is not valid JSON Unexpected token 'T', "The resour"... is not valid JSON

• Error occurrence was more frequent in projects with multiple attached documents and repeated dashboard navigation.

• URL length increased continuously due to repeated inclusion of dashboard state parameters (TablayoutContent0, ButtonBlock3, versionUid, contextUid, primaryProjectUid, attributeUid, etc.).
