Although it doesn't solve your issue, I've found another post where @afelix gives a good explanation why the url takes that format, and why it really cannot be changed.

> When I access the dashboard, something similar to this is shown in the browser: [http://localhost:1880/ui/#!/0socketid=037BESeRkXHx\_tP5AAAC](http://localhost:1880/ui/#!/0socketid=037BESeRkXHx_tP5AAAC) I would like to know if it is possible to make this cleaner and remove that "#!/0socketid=037BESeRkXHx\_tP5AAAC". For example: [http://localhost:1880/ui/](http://localhost:1880/ui/) BR, Marcio
