redirecting back to page after authentication

Hi there,
I am still new to toddle, but I am happy on how fast I am progressing.
I created many pages in my app including the login page. login page successfully redirects to the main page after authentication.

I also was able to redirect the other pages to the login page if the user is not authenticated.

now i am struggling with redirecting the user back to the page he requested instead of going to the default home page.

I tried asking the AI and went through a few discord posts. i was not able to sort it out.

Pass the current URL as a parameter to the login page

And on successful login, redirect back to that page

Any would work. You set it as a URL parameter on the login page
When you redirect to the login page you pass it in the URL
Like mydomain.com/login?redirect=mydomain.com/current-page
And on the login page, you check if there’s a url. If so, redirect to it, otherwise go to home page
The parameter can be anything though, that part doesn’t matter.

thanks, I was able to figure out where the issue is. I was able to successfully implement it by doing configuration this function on the click event in the login page:
Default to(
Decode URI Component(
Get(
Get(
Parse URL(Current URL()),
"searchParams"
),
"redirect"
)
),
"/home"
)

@Lucas G now it is clear that redirect, redirect_to or what ever i chose does not matter as long I am consistent int he name on both pages.
thank you very much

Close but there’s an even easier way
On your login page on the top right, where you set the page meta data, you can set URL parameters
You can set your query parameter there and you won’t even need the formula
