Hi, I am trying to configure a proxy address that matches google search term, for example the url below would match: https://www.google.com/se...id=chrome&ie=UTF-8 I have used the below but its not matching: [link]https://pasteboard.co/FWoBYn3ToMFy.jpg[/link] It matches the regex here: [link]https://regex101.com/r/Nx4iaR/1[/link] However i'm confused why this doesn't work. Can anyone help?

    If you are not using DPI or deep-packet inspection you will not be able to fully control the url filtering for https website.  Without deep inspection, the fortigate just knows that the user is going to google.com and not what they are looking for on that site.
