|   |                                                                              |

|   | Specifying a failure URL overrides any `gotoOnFail` query string parameters. |

For more information on how AM determines the redirection URL, and to configure the Validation Service to trust redirection URLs, refer to [Configure success and failure redirection URLs](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingam/7.4/am-authentication/redirection-url-precedence.html).

|   | The URL is also saved in the shared `nodeState` object on the `failureUrl` key.For more information, refer to [Customize authentication trees](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingam/7.4/am-authentication/about-authentication-trees.html#customizing-auth-trees). |
