Business API: Clicking link from Registration email in a new session brings back to a blank page and login doesn't do anything.
- [ ] On Firefox, none of the three login methods work.
- [ ] This has already triggered two Ops tickets.
To Do List:
- [ ] Update the link in the registration email to be reflective of current value.
- [ ] Can this be parameterized?
Have noticed this in TEST env.
I register a firm and then click the link to see it from the email I get. If I haven't already been logged in, then it looks like the app is broken and non-responsive in TEST env at least. Seems like it would be a common issue if I register on one computer and then later on come back to it via the email on another one.
Scenario:
- Register a new Firm in one browser (like I'm at the office, or registering for someone else)
- Later on get the email ("Registration Documents from the Business Registry") with the registration docs
- Click the link "log in to your BC Business Registry account."
- Do this in a different browser (like later on when I've got home, etc) or have logged out on the original browser
- Just get a blank page
- Clicking login with BCSC there doesn't do anything
See the result in the video below. Blank page and non-functional login is at about 2:00:

The emails need to be updated with the new Business Dashboard URL.
In the scenario above, the URL should be: https://test.business-dashboard.bcregistry.gov.bc.ca/FM1142718
Tested this TEST environment,
It redirects to the wrong URL - https://test.business-dashboard.bcregistry.gov.bc.cafm1142727/
Tested this scenario
https://test.business-dashboard.bcregistry.gov.bc.cafm1142727/
It redirects to the wrong URL - https://test.business-dashboard.bcregistry.gov.bc.cafm1142727/
There are 2 problems with this URL:
- need a / between web address and URL parameters
- "fm1142727" should be "FM1142727"
Hence, the URL should be: https://test.business-dashboard.bcregistry.gov.bc.ca/FM1142727/.
We've corrected the config in test env, did a registration and it looks right now
Tested, looks good
