Following Redirects in SDKs

· 2 min read

We've fixed an issue in SDKs where HTTP redirections were not being handled properly. Please generate new SDKs to receive the fixes.

Details​

Java, Node.js and Ruby SDKs will now follow HTTP redirects properly.

The table below describes what the expected behavior is:

Status CodesBehavior
301-303Request is repeated but with the GET method. Request body will be dropped, if any. This matches the current behavior of the web browsers.*
307-308Request is repeated with the original method and body.

* Requests with HEAD method are repeated without change.

SDKs with Pending Issues​

We are still looking at how to overcome the limitations of the underlying HTTP client to fix this issue in C#, PHP and Python.

  • Python SDK will not change the HTTP method to GET on 301 redirects, if the original method was PUT or DELETE.
  • C# SDK will not change the HTTP method to GET on 301-303 redirects, if the original method was PUT or DELETE.
  • PHP SDK will not change the HTTP method to GET on 301-303 redirects, if the original method was PUT or DELETE.

We're exploring options to fix these issues. Please submit a ticket if you run into them.
