CharlieBrown CharlieBrown 3, 21 21 silver badges 22 22 bronze badges. Hi CharlieBrown, thank you very much for your answer. But it doesn't work for me. When I am saying redirect, I want to say the same thing that you are explaining in your answer. The problem about your answer is that I still have the same problem.

Hi Raul, it doesn't make too much sense. It seems to be that the problem is elsewhere. You could produce a small code example and we can work it out from that. No, React router handling all "same-domain elements". I'll try to show more code in my next edition, but I don't know how much I can show. Thank you very much for your time.

Romero open the developer tools in your browser, go to the Network tab and then click on the button in your app and see if a network request is registered on the Network tab.

If on the other hand it appears then the issue is with the backend check the url that is logged if it is the correct and check if it completes or if it fails — Gabriele Petrioli.

Romero glad you got it sorted out. This only works with resources from the same domain. Sign up or log in Sign up using Google.

Building intelligent escalation chains for modern SRE. And the component attribute will contain the component name that we need to route to. But the problem is we are able to see the home page. To overcome this we will use 'exact' keyword. This keyword ensure to match exactly the same string that provided in the path keyword.

After adding the exact keyword our problem was fixed. Now we can able to see only the about page. But we have one more problem here, what will happen if we hit some random string in the query parameter rather than the keywords that we are provided in the path attribute.

Like in the above we will see an empty page if we try to hit some unknown url. But actually we have to navigate to the error page, if the required page is not available. In BrowserRouter we can't do that. To do that we have to use the Switch tag. Switch by default will match only one at a given time. By Wrapping all the tags into the Switch tag we can perform Error page handling. To use Switch we have to add this along with BrowserRouter and Route in the import section, after adding the Switch the code will be look like the below one.

By adding that component in Route tag without specifying any path, we will navigate to that component if the URL not matched with our other Route paths. We have implemented the Route, Switch, Error page. We all set.
