How to handle minigame configuration ID as URL route

Currently, we handle the handover of configuration IDs to the minigame frontend with a URL fragment.
After discussion with some team members, this solution is no longer preferred.

Possible Solutions

• insert the ID into the route

  • /api/minigames/$MINIGAME/$ID/

  • for example: /api/minigames/bugfinder/$ID/

• keep the old solution (URL fragent)

  • /api/minigames/$MINIGAME#$ID

• send an email to the user and he copies it into the frontend

Chosen Solution

Pro Solution

• /api/minigames/$MINIGAME/$ID/

  • easy to understand and use

Contra Solution

• /api/minigames/$MINIGAME/$ID/

  • changes needed in implementations of the old format

• old solution

  • very bad

  • cannot use the fragment for section-linking anymore

  • URL fragment is normally optional but mandatory in our case

• email

  • bad user experience
