Hi @8lall0 , for redirection using the Gin framework, the documentation is a great place to refer. Redirects | Gin Framework is a good place to start. It offers some simple examples which seem to be the solution to your problem.

@8lall0 I can't reproduce what you're seeing. Can you provide more information/context?

Here's what I got:

*   Trying 127.0.0.1:8080...
* Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 8080 (#0)
> GET / HTTP/1.1
> Host: localhost:8080
> User-Agent: curl/7.88.1
> Accept: */*
> 
< HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
< Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
< Location: http://www.google.com/
< Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2024 19:42:54 GMT
< Content-Length: 57
< 
<a href="http://www.google.com/">Moved Permanently</a>.

And the code:

func doIt(c *gin.Context) {
    c.Redirect(http.StatusMovedPermanently, "http://www.google.com/")
}

Hi, at the end was a problem with my browser that cached a wrong permanent redirect.

Closing issue, thank you for the patience.
