Description
New Issue Checklist
- I am not disclosing a vulnerability.
- I am not just asking a question.
- I have searched through existing issues.
- I can reproduce the issue with the latest versions of Parse Server and Parse Dashboard.
Enviroment:
parse-dashboard 5.1.0 / parse-server 5.4.0
Issue Description
Since version 5.0, clicking on the sidebar always results in a 404 error page, and the data only shows up after refreshing again. This issue did not exist in version 4.x.
Based on my testing, starting from version 5.0, it is not possible to use the parse-dashboard-config.json file as a configuration file. Otherwise, a 404 error will occur.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported behavior with parse-dashboard 5.1.0 and parse-server 5.4.0, using parse-dashboard-config.json as the configuration file. Check why clicking the sidebar produces a 404 and why data appears only after refreshing. Done means the configuration file works and the dashboard loads sidebar destinations and data without a second refresh.
