Handling 307 Redirects in REST Streaming client

[Shlomo Hecht]

Hello

  I am developing a client that uses the Server Sent Events interface  to  firebase

There is a request to support 307 redirects from the server

I do not know the identification of this message and the structure of the data.

thanks

Hi, 307 is a standard http status code in a response. It means that the client should try the exact same request again, but at a different URI. That URI is given in the Location header of the response. You can find a summary here: https://httpstatuses.com/307

Hope that helps!

It helps a lot, but I am looking for the way to read this http header from within the event listener. Even more: what is the event that I am listening too? It is not 'error'. Is it put? Open? Other?

Ah, is this from a browser? Most browsers *should* handle the redirect for you. You only need to worry about it if you're using a lower-level http client. From a browser, you can usually verify that it's handling the redirect for you by looking at the Network tab in the dev tools, and looking for the initial request receiving a redirect in response, and then seeing another request afterwards. In general, if you are receiving events in your event handler in a browser, it is probably working.

We are not in a browser. We have low level client.

In that case, you need to read the Location header of the response in the event that you get a 307 status code, and then reissue your request to the new URI.
