No academy lab is working

Whe I click Access the lab button on any vulnerability lab it opens the page with 400 bad request.

Thanks for getting in touch. I just checked a few of the Labs and they seem to be loading ok for me.

Which browser are you using? Please also try testing a different browser if you can. Let me know how you get on.

Also tried deleting all the saved cookies on my browser. still no joy.

We do not have any reports of any issues with the labs and we can launch them ok from various different machines/networks (the fact that you appear to have an issue with all of the labs would suggest the problem is likely to be environmental on your side). I would suggest clearing all browser data including cache and restoring your browser to default settings in case a cookie setting or similar is causing a problem. You could also try using Burp's embedded Chromium browser (Proxy tab > Open Browser)

Adding portswigger.net to the allowlist of my addblocker solves this issue for me.
