Regex not matching in url

I have designed the following url pattern

re_path(r'^api/refresh-token/(?P<token>[1-9]+\_[0-9a-f]{32}\Z)/$',refresh_token)

1_6506823466dc409a93b83b2c5f3b7cf2 matches the pattern [1-9]+\_[0-9a-f]{32}\Z.

enter image description here

But when i hit the url it is not found.

System check identified no issues (0 silenced).

The \Z asserts the end of the string, or before the line terminator, but there is still content to match: the slash at the end, so the \Z makes it impossible to satisfy any string at all.

You do not need to use \Z at all here, since there is no multi-line, and $ already matches the end of the line.

You this can implement this with:

re_path(r'^api/refresh-token/(?P<token>[1-9]+\_[0-9a-f]{32})/$', refresh_token)
