In Next.js, you can use the getServerSideProps function to check if the user has accessed a specific URL and then redirect them to another page. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 |
// pages/specific-page.js
import { useRouter } from 'next/router';
export default function SpecificPage({ someData }) {
const router = useRouter();
// Check if user has accessed a specific URL
if (someData !== 'expectedValue') {
// Redirect to another page
router.push('/another-page');
}
return (
<div>
<h1>This is the specific page</h1>
</div>
)
}
export async function getServerSideProps() {
// Perform some logic to check if user has accessed specific URL
const someData = 'value';
return {
props: {
someData
}
}
}

In the getServerSideProps function, you can perform any logic to determine if the user has accessed the specific URL. If the condition is met, you can return the data as props. In the component, you can then use the useRouter hook to check the value of someData and redirect the user to another page if necessary.
Note: Make sure to import useRouter from 'next/router' at the beginning of the component file.
