No option to book an exam in Examity

Dear Portswigger, please the FAQ https://portswigger.net/web-security/certification/frequently-asked-questions says: "Do I need to create a user account with Examity? Once you have made the payment for your Burp Suite Certified Practitioner exam, from your PortSwigger account page, you will be directed through to Examity. This is our third-party automated proctoring platform, where you will need to officially book your exam." But I don't see any option to do that. The examity "Exam" https://on.examity.com/V5/exams page says: "You are not enrolled in any courses with current or upcoming exams. Please check back later." Is that an expected behaviour and I will still be able to take the exam after clicking on "Start the exam" in the Portswigger page or do I need to have a slot booked with Examity? Thank you very much. Ivan

Thanks for your message This is expected behavior, you don't need to have a slot booked with Exaxmity. When you're ready to take the exam you can log into your PortSwigger account and click on 'Start Exam', you will then be guided through the required steps with Examity. Please let me know if you've got any questions and good luck with the exam :)

i have been trying to reach examity but its giving 502-error 502 - Web server received an invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server. There is a problem with the page you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed. When the Web server (while acting as a gateway or proxy) contacted the upstream content server, it received an invalid response from the content server.

Thanks for your message. For issues with Examity's website we would advise contacting Examity directly, however, Examity's page appears to be available currently. If you are still having issues can you please confirm the URL you are trying to use and the tasks that you need to carry out on Examity's site?
