Having two path params with the same name in session storage

Hi,
I use path params with the name ABC on one page of my application. I save the path param in my session storage. Can I also use a path param with the name ABC on another page of my application or would this cause any problems?

Thanks 🙂

You never want to use the same name for different things anywhere, that will lead to mixups and overwrites
That includes session storage

If you are prefixing them then it should be fine.

local and session storage is the same for the whole site
You can see what's currently being stored by opening up console on any site
Since it can be easily accessed, be sure to not store anything important/sensitive there

That makes sense. Thank you for the clarification. And sure, I won´t.

A bit off topic but any idea when V2 is gonna be available or is there another solution that allows us to hide our API endpoints?

Any calls with sensitive info (like API keys) should be made from a backend

Definitely but the endpoints are still visible in the console

What is your concern?
Endpoints being visible shouldn’t be an issue

Just people abusing data since some of my endpoints do not require authorization..

Ah I see. Yeah we should always make sure all public endpoints are secure
