I am writing a Helidon SE webserver and I am not to process the #content as part of URL.

I tried the following: ServerRequest request; request.uri() request.absoluteUri() None of them is giving me the hash content of the request URL. For example: https://example.com/#code=xyz I need to extract 'xyz'

The anchor is not sent to the server by the client (e.g. browser / curl).

curl -vvv http://localhost:8080/foo\?bob\=alice\#xyz
*   Trying 127.0.0.1:8080...
* Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 8080 (#0)
> GET /foo?bob=alice HTTP/1.1
> Host: localhost:8080
> User-Agent: curl/7.79.1
> Accept: */*

See this answer which goes into more details. Retrieving anchor link in URL for ASP.NET
