# Goto URL

When [Authentication Fail URL](org.forgerock.agents.authn.fail.url.html) is not set, this property sets the URL or URI to which the agent redirects the user after a failed authentication. If neither property is set, the agent returns an HTTP 400 Bad Request.

To configure the agent to send the reason for authentication failure in a named query parameter, configure [Authentication Fail Reason Parameter Name](org.forgerock.agents.authn.fail.reason.parameter.name.html).
