Thought it broke logins with the most recent upgrade to AWS access portal IAM identity center (I think version two, but it is difficult to say). However, the problem was that with the upgrade a request was made to handle a new certificate, which was hidden. Explicitly opening into a container allowed for setup of the certificate, and now it works.
