kibana is a plugin and which contains: 1. /app/kibana#/visualize' 2. '/app/kibana#/dashboard' 3. '/app/kibana#/settings' 4./app/kibana#/visualize which all are routed by ng-routes, so the access url i get from node layer all are '/app/kibana', but how can i know which detailed url is accessed in node route layer? ---

@whoami, 1. /app/kibana#/visualize' 2. '/app/kibana#/dashboard' 3. '/app/kibana#/settings' 4. /app/kibana#/visualize These are all client-side routes, but it sounds like you're trying to work with them in the kibana server code? What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Client-side urls are defined in places like [this](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/src/plugins/kibana/public/visualize/editor/editor.js#L22), and then are consumed in client-side urls like [this](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/src/plugins/kibana/index.js#L41-L71). But then there are also server-side routes defined like [this](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/src/plugins/kibana/server/routes/api/settings/register_get.js#L5) that can be accessed via ajax or angular html calls. ---

that's not the right answer of my question. I think if plugin with client-side route, then we cannot get their route in node layer, right? ---
