Using the Release Seeding mechanism always say orginating from null

Im using the Release Seeding mechanism and it works but it always says

You are about to submit a request to Log in - MusicBrainz originating from null. Continue?

Is there something I am meant to do so it doesnt say null, there was nothing abou this at Development / Seeding / Release Editor - MusicBrainz

From where are you seeding? As far as I know this a Firefox specific behavior when seeding from a local file

Hi, it happens on Chrome as well, I wonder if is because the starting url im using is just a file

``C:/Users/Paul/AppData/Roaming/SongKong/addrelease11423121939190240266.html`

rather than a local webserver

e.g

localhost:4567/addrelease11423121939190240266.html

(I will try this later, cannot do this currently)

However the second issue you linked to says to use skip_confirmation=1 parameter and this skips the page entirely solving the issue.

Yes, it is. There is no origin when navigating from a local file.

But I’d recommend using a local webserver anyway. I don’t remember the exact details, but certain restrictions in modern browser made us switch from file to server in Picard.

Thanks, within SongKong I do usually use a local webserver, but just porting Seeding code from Jaikoz that does not.

Just as info: This is how it looks like when submitting from Picard, with local web server:
