Background:
I am handling authentication in my project using Authentication Handler class. The logic is: token created during login will be verified and if it is valid, then only access to required APIs will be given.
Scenario:
I am logged in the application with valid credentials(I have a token created during login). If I open a page in another tab from the app (using window.open(address, "_blank")), it is opening that page. But when I manually open another tab on browser and enter the same address in address bar, ,it is redirecting me to login page.
Question:
Isn't opening page using window.open and manually entering address in address bar the same thing? Why am I able to open page using window.open but not manually entering same URL by opening new tab?
