The error message seems to be same as https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/36529/files#diff-ffe24395246b343e8006e4eaef52c2d3bf68c20497ac96ef1e626d4351258047R155. Since this is specific for chain requests, should we change it to failed to generate new url for chain pagination request? Ofcourse, we also have the line number inside the error trace. Just checking..

I'll differentiate this. Thanks, I was trying to make them all searchably unique. Line numbers are OK, but error message strings are far more robust, and in this case the error is generated at a different site to where the log call will be made.
