HTTP 302 Found
RedirectionThe resource temporarily lives at another URL. Search engines keep the original URL indexed; browsers don't cache the redirect.
Defined in RFC 9110
Common causes
- Login flows and post-action redirects
- Temporary moves, A/B routing
How to fix it
If the move is permanent, switch to 301/308 so SEO signals transfer
If the request method must not change, use 307 instead
