Create 307 Redirect

The redirect status codes (3xx) are indicators that a page or resource has been moved (temporarily or permanently) from its original destination. During server updates, redesigns, and other application changes, developers often use the temporary 307 redirect, also known as an internal redirect. The 307 redirect points users to new URLs using the location header, while at the same time indicating (to search engines) that the change is only temporary. This helps with SEO (search engine optimization).

With Fiddler Everywhere, you can easily create a rule that redirects traffic with status code 307.

Creating a "Redirect to URL with 307" Rule

Create a "Redirect to URL with 307" rule by setting the following actions through the Rules Builder.

  1. Create a matching condition that uses the "When all these conditions are met any number of times" pattern.

  2. Match by a Method where the string value equals the desired HTTP method. For example: a GET method.

  3. Match by a Method where the string value defines the targeted hosts. For example: a regular expression that matches the example.com domain.

  4. Create an Update Status Code action and set it to 307 Internal Redirect.

  5. Create an Update Response Header action and set the Location header to the desired new value. For example: https://www.example.com.

This sample Fiddler rule matches all sessions where the host is example.com and then creates a temporary 307 redirect.

Creating "Redirect to URL with 307" rule

Once the rule is created, enable the Rules tab, toggle the rule switch, and start capturing traffic.

Activating the "Redirect to URL with 307" rule

Download a ready-to-use "Redirect to URL with 307" rule as a FARX file, which you can import through the Rules toolbar.
