Correct way to redirect

[netwire88]

Overview/summary

Hi,
We use Turbolinks and have no trouble using UJS redirect. However, if we need to do a html-based redirect, what is the proper way to do this?

In shopify_app 22.2.1, we used to do the following by adding the shop params already in the original request

In controller (after authentication):

respond_to do |format|
  format.html {
    @redirect_to = edit_orders_path(shop: params[:shop])
  }
end

Then in html.erb, we have:

Turbolinks.visit("<%= @redirect_to %>");

However, in shopify_app 22.5.1, that doesn't work we get ShopifyAPI::Errors::InvalidJwtTokenError, with message "Error decoding session token"

Any suggestions?

We also tried

1. ensuring AuthenticatedController has include ShopifyApp::WithShopifyIdToken
2. and in controller, call redirect_to edit_orders_path(shop: jwt_shopify_domain)

but we get INTERNAL ERROR!!! TypeError: Parameter 'other': Expected type T.nilable(ShopifyAPI::Auth::JwtPayload), got type Module with value Debase

Can you try using fullpage_redirect_to(url)?

Thanks, that seemed to have worked. However, after the page loads, it still gets "ShopifyAPI::Errors::InvalidJwtTokenError: Error decoding session token: Signature has expired" sometimes. Is there a way to add all these helper methods to documentation? I didn't find it anywhere.

@netwire88 did you solve your issue? Also struggling to figure out how to do redirect

Hi @danielfriis We used fullpage_redirect_to but it's a bit buggy. We sometimes get InvalidJwtTokenError after being on the redirected page for 30+ seconds.

Thanks for sharing. I ended up making a redirect_controller which triggers a js call which in turn I have signed via app bridge. It's not as snappy as otherwise, but it gets the job done.
