Reproduction

A basic nuxt app with 2 pages, both getting data from an API with one of those pages have a link to the other via navigateTo

Describe the bug

A basic nuxt app with 2 pages, both getting data from an API via:

const route = useRoute();
const { data: page } = await useAsyncData(
	'page', () => fetch(`${this.baseUrl}/by-path/${route.path}`);
);

One page uses navigateTo to link to the second page

Generating flat HTML via npm run generate means that no API call is made when visiting either page. When clicking the navigateTo link on page one to page two, page 2 calls the API as if it is not statically generated

This is correct behavior. If no payload is extracted/available, useAsyncData (and useFetch) will fall back to client-side fetching.
