3537784 - No alert/popup even though "enableInterstitialForExternalURL" is true

Symptom

When accessing a content hosted in an external domain, the alert/popup box that warns learners about transitioning to an external domain doesn't appear, even though "enableInterstitialForExternalURL" is true.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Learning admin side > System Administration > Configuration > System Configuration > WEB_SECURITY >
  2. Set "enableInterstitialForExternalURL" to "true" >
  3. Don't add the domain/URL in allow list (whitelistedDomains) configuration >
  4. Set the content object with an external domain > Relate it to an item > Assign it to users >
  5. Learning user side > The given item is launched > The external domain is directly reached, without the alert/popup box.
