The +Location: header can specify a relative or an absolute URL to follow. + +libcurl will issue another request for the new URL and follow new Location: +headers all the way until no more such headers are returned. +\fICURLOPT_MAXREDIRS(3)\fP can be used to limit the number of redirects +libcurl will follow. + +libcurl limits what protocols it automatically follows to. The accepted +protocols are set with \fICURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS(3)\fP. By default libcurl +will allow HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS on redirect (7.65.2). Older versions of +libcurl allowed all protocols on redirect except those disabled for security +reasons: Since 7.19.4 FILE and SCP are disabled, and since 7.40.0 SMB and SMBS +are also disabled. + +When following a Location:, the 3xx response code that redirected it also +dictates which request method it will use in the subsequent request: For 301, +302 and 303 responses libcurl will switch method to GET unless +\fICURLOPT_POSTREDIR(3)\fP instructs libcurl otherwise. All other 3xx codes +will make libcurl send the same method again. + +For users who think the existing location following is too naive, too simple +or just lacks features, it is very easy to instead implement your own redirect +follow logic with the use of \fIcurl_easy_getinfo(3)\fP's +\fICURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL(3)\fP option instead of using +\fICURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3)\fP. +.SH DEFAULT +0, disabled +.SH PROTOCOLS +HTTP(S) +.SH EXAMPLE +.nf +CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); +if(curl) { + curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com"); + + /* example.com is redirected, so we tell libcurl to follow redirection */ + curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1L); + + curl_easy_perform(curl); +} +.fi +.SH AVAILABILITY +Along with HTTP +.SH RETURN VALUE +Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS "(3), " CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS "(3), " +.BR CURLOPT_POSTREDIR "(3), " +.BR CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL "(3), " CURLINFO_REDIRECT_COUNT "(3), "
