URL filtering is configured on the firewall we have the possibility to check on the web interface at Monitor > Log > URL Log the statistics recorded on requested URLs. We can view URL logs to check why access to some URLs is allowed, blocked or allowed with an alert record.
In the situation where the URL string has a large number of characters, a portion of the string will be concealed by the following characters "/.../" which will not allow the possibility of querying the entire address.
To check the entire URL string of the filtered URLs is to create an audit account and to configure audit policies in order to check the url access. The audit account has the possibility to check the entire URL string in the audit logs.
Note: To benefit of the Audit feature the Content security function must be enabled by license
