Hi,
This happens because SSO needs a valid redirect/login URL, and Mendix doesn’t automatically expose a “local link” unless the app’s root URL and SSO callbacks are configured correctly.
Localhost doesn’t show because most Identity Providers (Azure AD / Okta / SAML) require the exact registered redirect URI.
Fix:
http://localhost:8080)Until that is done, the local SSO link won’t display.
The local link is only available when you run the application locally from Studio Pro. It will not appear if you are using Run in Cloud or accessing a deployed environment.
To get the local URL, open Studio Pro and click Run Locally. Once the application starts successfully, check the Console tab at the bottom. You should see a URL such as http://localhost:8080.
If the link is not visible, make sure the application has started without errors. Also verify the configured port under Project Settings → Runtime → Server Settings. If the port is different from 8080, your local URL will reflect that port.
If this resolves the issue, please close the topic.
