Hello Tikhon,
I dont find any help section…support is disabled and i am not sure why this is happening. This is a very frequent issue which is happening with the lens desktop and so many user are facing the same issue but unfortunately the lens support is not able to provide any support or doc to resolve this.
I even engaged my IT team to look into the issue but they also unable to resolve the issue.

Hello,
Could you try to first log into [Lens ID portal](https://app.k8slens.dev/signin) and after successfully logging in click on “Lens Desktop”. It should redirect you to the Lens Desktop with your credentials.
We are waiting for your reply.

Hi,
It seems that proxy settings are not passed properly to service component that is doing the login on Lens Desktop and that’s why Lens is not able to request the auth server. We will try to reproduce this and fix this issue as soon as possible.

Hello yacine-1,
That error can be caused by multiple different reasons. The fix has been released more than a month ago.
Please check the logs to understand the cause of the issue.
Here are where you can find the logs:
- MacOS: ~/Library/Logs/Lens/
- Windows: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Lens\logs\
- Linux: ~/.config/Lens/logs/

Hello,
The k8slens(.)dev domain is blocked by my company.
I usually go through a proxy but I don’t have the possibility to define it in Lens before connecting. The preference window does not want to open until I have connected with my Lens ID.
In the logs, I see several requests blocked by the firewall to downloads(.)k8slens(.)dev/ide/latest.yml
I am on Lens 2024.8.291605

Hello yacine-1,
So, this is the main reason for the issue.
Did you check the allow list? if not, here it is: [Redirecting...](https://docs.k8slens.dev/lens-id/ip-allowlist/?h=allow)

Hello,
I asked my company to authorize K8SLens DNS domains and it works again.
However, this does not solve the problem at its root. It is necessary to be able to really configure the proxy from the first start of the application.
If my company had refused my DNS authorization request, using the proxy would be the only solution.
Best regards.
