Hi, I am running Elastic App Search in Docker using: [docker.elastic.co/enterprise-search/enterprise-search:7.8.0](http://docker.elastic.co/enterprise-search/enterprise-search:7.8.0) I have been investigating why the email invitations do not work, the reason is the hyperlink in the email which App Search sends out includes a URL like: [https://appsearch.xxxx.com/\*\*ws\*\*/invitations/uniquecode](https://appsearch.xxxx.com/ **ws** /invitations/uniquecode) this routes to the login page, however in the application if you copy the invitation URL its actually: [https://appsearch.xxxx.com/\*\*as\*\*/invitations/uniquecode](https://appsearch.xxxx.com/ **as** /invitations/uniquecode) Is there somewhere i can report (or fix) a bug? thanks ---

Quick debugging question - were the emails with these issues opened in Microsoft Outlook, or another email provider (Gmail, etc.)? Thanks for your time and bug report! ---

to also note i am working around this issue today by putting Nginx in front of App Search, which is doing the URL conversion of /ws/invitations/\* to /as/invitations/\* which is resolving the issue until resolved, if there is somewhere i can review the code and commit the fix happy to do so? ---

Gmail/browser is super helpful to know for testing - thank you! Re: code review - unfortunately App Search source code is currently in a private repo, but we can certainly let you know when the fix ships to a 7.8.x release! EDIT: We should have a fix coming out in 7.8.1! Keep an eye out! ---
