> When the URL for NiFi Registry is launched, it does _not_ automatically redirect to the {{/nifi-registry}} path. Users must manually append {{/nifi-registry}} to the URL in the browser to reach the UI. This is causing confusion, extra user queries, and document-searching by users.
> *Steps to reproduce*
>  # Navigate to the base URL (e.g. {{{}https://my-server:port/{}}}).
>  # The UI does _not_ redirect to {{{}https://my-server:port/nifi-registry{}}}.
>  # The user must manually enter {{…/nifi-registry}} in the browser address bar to reach the Registry UI.
> *Expected behavior*
> The base URL should either:
>  * Automatically redirect to {{/nifi-registry}}
> *Actual behavior*
> Users land on the base URL but do not see the Registry UI; they must know to append {{/nifi-registry}} explicitly.
> *Impact*
>  * Increases user queries to support.
>  * Increases onboarding/documentation overhead.
>  * Slight risk of users not finding the Registry UI or thinking the service is down.
> *Workarounds*
> Manual append of {{/nifi-registry}} in browser URL.
