Try it: get a real 307 response

Our test endpoint answers every request with 307 Temporary Redirect.

curl -i https://mockfox.dev/api/status/307

Use it in tests, health-check monitors or to see how your client handles a 307. Add ?delay=2000 to slow it down.

What does HTTP 307 mean?

Like 302, but the client must not change POST into GET: a POST to the old URL is replayed as a POST (with its body) to the new one. Browsers also use an internal 307 when HSTS upgrades http:// to https://. Next.js redirect() and non-permanent next.config redirects return 307.

Handling 307

  1. Visitors: Browsers handle redirects automatically. If you're stuck in a loop, clear the site's cookies and cache.
  2. Developers: Check the Location header and test redirects with curl -I. Prefer 301/308 for permanent moves and 302/303/307 for temporary ones.

Example 307 response

HTTP/1.1 307 Temporary Redirect
Location: https://example.com/new-endpoint
Content-Type: application/json

{"status":307,"error":"Temporary Redirect"}

3xx Redirection: Further action (usually following a Location header) is needed to complete the request. See the full list of HTTP status codes.
