popBackStack() is not working in android NavController

I am using android JetPack navigation to navigate between my fragments. This is how my navigation graph looks like

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><navigation xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/registration_nav_graph"
app:startDestination="@id/registrationStoreNameFragment">

<fragment
    android:id="@+id/registrationStoreNameFragment"
    android:name="com.minidukaan.android.feature.registration.view.RegistrationStoreNameFragment"
    android:label="fragment_registration_store_name"
    tools:layout="@layout/fragment_registration_store_name" >
    <action
        android:id="@+id/action_registrationStoreNameFragment_to_registrationStoreUrlFragment2"
        app:destination="@id/registrationStoreUrlFragment2" />
</fragment>

<fragment
    android:id="@+id/registrationStoreUrlFragment2"
    android:name="com.minidukaan.android.feature.registration.view.RegistrationStoreUrlFragment"
    android:label="RegistrationStoreUrlFragment" >
    <action
        android:id="@+id/action_registrationStoreUrlFragment2_to_registrationLocationFragment"
        app:destination="@id/registrationLocationFragment" />
    <argument
        android:name="store_name"
        app:argType="string" />
    <argument
        android:name="store_slug"
        app:argType="string" />
</fragment>


<fragment
    android:id="@+id/registrationLocationFragment"
    android:name="com.minidukaan.android.feature.registration.view.RegistrationLocationFragment"
    android:label="fragment_registration_location"
    tools:layout="@layout/fragment_registration_location" >
    <action
        android:id="@+id/action_registrationLocationFragment_to_registrationSuccessFragment"
        app:destination="@id/registrationSuccessFragment" />
    <argument
        android:name="store_name"
        app:argType="string" />
    <argument
        android:name="store_slug"
        app:argType="string"
        android:defaultValue=""/>
</fragment>
<fragment
    android:id="@+id/registrationSuccessFragment"
    android:name="com.minidukaan.android.feature.registration.view.RegistrationSuccessFragment"
    android:label="fragment_registration_success"
    tools:layout="@layout/fragment_registration_success" />

From RegistrationStoreNameFragment I navigate to RegistrationStoreUrlFragment like this

private lateinit var navController: NavController
override fun init(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.init(savedInstanceState)
    ....

    binding.lifecycleOwner = this
    navController = view?.let { Navigation.findNavController(it) }!!
    val action = RegistrationStoreNameFragmentDirections.
                        actionRegistrationStoreNameFragmentToRegistrationStoreUrlFragment2(storeName, it.slug)
                            navController.navigate(action)

}

so it navigates perfectly, but when I do navController.popBackStack() in RegistrationStoreUrlFragment then it doesn't navigate back. Any help will be highly appreciated as I am stuck in this issue for a long time.

For other fragments popBackStack is working fine but not for the ones mentioned above.

When do you want to navigate?

If on any custom event you want to navigate back to a previously added fragment then,

You have to define popUpTo action under your Fragment tag in NavGraph,

<fragment
android:id="@+id/registrationStoreUrlFragment2"
android:name="com.minidukaan.android.feature.registration.view.RegistrationStoreUrlFragment"
android:label="RegistrationStoreUrlFragment" >
<action
        android:id="@+id/action_pop_back"
        app:destination="@id/registrationSuccessFragment"
        app:popUpTo="@+id/registrationSuccessFragment"/>
</fragment>

And call it in the navigate like this,

findNavController().navigate(R.id.action_pop_back)
