Research direction
Reproduce the issue by opening the provided Swagger UI URL with an invalid urls.primaryName query parameter. Trace where that parameter is handled and how the default API page is selected. Done means an invalid API name produces visible error feedback instead of silently loading the default page; verify the behavior in Chrome with the supplied URL.
