What we do in this flow;

• If an account already has a free policy, it will take the user to the workspaces list
• If not, it will take the user to the "new workspace" flow.

Looks to me like the account you tested in staging already had a free policy, so the flow is not wrong IMO. Can you confirm that?

Thanks!

Yeah I agree with @danieldoglas here, I think the view you are testing here is mainly for when user does not have workspace yet, I have tested creating a new workspace from OldDot being deeplinked to new dot and that worked well.

I think we can remove the deploy blocker here and investigate if all is fine with the android chrome, we might close this eventually

[danieldoglas]

So:

• The first video is not taking to the new workspace screen because they already had an existing policy (and oldDot "knew" it)
• The second video takes them to the new screen the first time because they didn't have a free policy (and oldDot new they didn't), and the second time it creates a new one because oldDot was not refreshed, so it still didn't know there was a new free policy created when it was clicked.

So we can close this issue, or there is anything specific on Android you want us to add? Do you need a new full flow video?

[danieldoglas]

IMO yes, closing it.
