IT33757: ADD OPTION TO OVERRIDE HTTP REDIRECT PROPERTY USING THE LOCAL ENVIRONMENT

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• HTTP requests can return a 30* response code indicating the
  target service has been relocated. The HTTPRequest node offers
  an option to follow the redirect automatically or to ignore the
  redirect. This option is not currently dynamic is thus on or
  off for all requests.
  
  This adds the ability to dynamically set
  the property, much like the RESTRequest node does:
  SET
  OutputLocalEnvironment.Destination.HTTP.FollowRedirection =
  TRUE;
  

Local fix

• NA
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users of IBM AppConnect Enterprise V11.0 and IBM Integration
  Bus V10.0 with the HTTPRequest node.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  z/OS, MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  There is no LocalEnvironment override for the HTTPRequest node
  property 'Follow HTTP(S) redirection' unlike RESTRequest node.
  ;
  

Problem conclusion

• A new LocalEnvironment override is added to dynamically set the
  'Follow HTTP(S) redirection' property. The new property is set
  as follows
  <span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)">SET
  OutputLocalEnvironment.Destination.HTTP.</span><span
  style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)">FollowRedirection
  </span><span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)">=
  TRUE</span>
