The validity of the string that forms the identifier is dependent on the operating system on which XperienCentral is running. When an alias redirect is created, a new directory is created on the file system of the server in this location: <xperiencentral-root>\webmanager-webapps\webmanager-static-webapp\target\webmanager-static-webapp-xx, where "xx" is the version of XperienCentral you are running.
