Navigation Widget Not Working with Custom URLs in Multipage Apps

When using custom URLs in Retool multipage apps, the navigation widget fails to route users to the specified pages.

Specifically, when a user clicks on a navigation item, the expected behavior—navigating to the corresponding page—does not occur if the app is configured with custom URLs.

This issue does not occur in the following scenarios:

  • When the app is not using custom URLs
  • When the app is in edit mode
  • When the navigation item links to the multipage root (rather than a specific page). In this case, the app correctly redirects to the default page, as expected.

As you know, the multipage feature requires a default page to be defined, so redirection works in some cases. However, page-specific navigation fails when using custom URLs.

Would appreciate any guidance or a fix!
Thanks!

Sorry for the late reply—this seems to be working for me, do you mind sending your app JSON to ibork@retool.com so I can try to debug?
