✅ Web API redirect back to client

I have a GET route that handles external authentication. On the client I have anchor <a href="myapi:8080/sign-in/external/Google">Google</a> to sign in with Google. If authentication is successful I want to return cookie (I'll change it later) and redirect back to client. I have one option to provide returnUrl but I'm not sure if it is a right solution. How can I do it? 
[HttpGet("sign-in/external/{provider}")]
public IActionResult External([FromRoute] string provider)
{
    AuthenticationProperties props =
        _signInManager.ConfigureExternalAuthenticationProperties(provider, "/api/Accounts/external-callback");

    return new ChallengeResult(provider, props);
}

[HttpGet("external-callback")]
public async Task<IActionResult> ExternalCallback()
{
...
// if authentication is success
return Ok();
}
[HttpGet("sign-in/external/{provider}")]
public IActionResult External([FromRoute] string provider)
{
    AuthenticationProperties props =
        _signInManager.ConfigureExternalAuthenticationProperties(provider, "/api/Accounts/external-callback");

    return new ChallengeResult(provider, props);
}

[HttpGet("external-callback")]
public async Task<IActionResult> ExternalCallback()
{
...
// if authentication is success
return Ok();
}
  <AnchorButton
    href={`${import.meta.env.VITE_API_URL}/accounts/sign-in/external/Google`}
  >Google</AnchorButtom>
