I have a .Net Core 6 app. It uses OAUTH for authentication. The startup page sets a number of Claims, based on the user, that allow access to the various subpages. If the user starts off on the Home page, access works correctly. If the user tries to go directly to a subpage, access fails. Authentication is working because I log the start and completion of user validation. The setting of the Claims happens during this phase, so I assume that is happening correctly as well.
To better explain, we want the user to be able to go directly to a subpage via a link in an email.https://abcd.com/Issue/Edit/24-037-MIf the user goes to https://abcd.com/Home first they can then go directly to https://abcd.com/Issue/Edit/24-037-M, however if they try to go directly to https://abcd.com/Issue/Edit/24-037-M the app fails.
This is the error I am getting:

I'm not sure if the startup is not handling the redirect to the subpage properly, or if there is something I am missing.
What do I need to do to allow the proper redirect?
