Multiple Choices

Several representations exist for the resource; the client should pick one.

The 3xx class

3xx — Redirection. The client must take additional action, usually following a Location header. 301/308 are permanent, 302/307 temporary, 304 means "use your cache".

Monitoring for this code

Redirects deserve monitoring attention: an unexpected redirect on an API endpoint often signals a misconfigured gateway, an expired domain setup or an auth wall. Assert the exact expected status code so a silent 3xx doesn't hide a regression.

Other 3xx status codes

301 Moved Permanently 302 Found 303 See Other 304 Not Modified 305 Use Proxy 307 Temporary Redirect 308 Permanent Redirect
