Third apps links open on without a specific container

Hello,

I'm currently trying to log-in on Postman application. This aplication when log-in button is pressed a tab on firefox is open with the postman site log-in. The trouble comes when trying to re-open the tab on another container. It breaks the log-in. To resolve this I would be interesting to some way to choose an specific or default container for new or incoming tabs.

Why would you want to (re)open a tab in another container as that is a recipe for problems when you need to authenticate (cookies are partitioned, so you lose session ID cookies) ?

Did you check to be sure your FireFox settings for the Browser isn't opening a new tab? Also what is the URL so others can verify if they get the same issue?

I am pretty sure that It's postman application which force sends to default browser open the link. In this case firefox.

I want to re(open) the tab because I have already logged in on that work container . For the momment the only way I suppose is to log-in the default container.


Here I attach a .gif of the process for any doubs. As you can see after re-opening tab on "Trabajo" container where I already am logged in Postman platform. The software in the computer does not finish the log-in. I think this problem is also because Postman opens a one time link log-in to improve security. Anyway I think firefox should to leave you choose a default container o manual choose of container each time a third application opens a link on default browser.
