How to change default request name '_dash-update-component'

Dash Python
1

All Plotly Dash requests have the name ‘_dash-update-component’. However, this is not ideal for a number of reasons:

  1. I need to put a higher limit for modevasive (DDoS prevention) because it considers every requests to be the same.
  2. It is more difficult to debug when all requests have the same name.

I would like to be able to have a custom name for each callback request. Such as ‘/callback1’, ‘/callback2’, etc.

Is it possible to change the name of a callback request?

If not, can someone point me where in the source code it is define and how much work would it take to implement such feature.

Thank you

Hello @adubreuil,

Welcome to the community!

I dont know the technical answers to your questions, but I think that this would be a bit of a bear to alter.

You can determine what callback was triggered and outputs/inputs are there by looking at the payload.
