Namespace: System.Net
Assembly: System.Http (in System.Http.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property AllowAutoRedirect As Boolean
public bool AllowAutoRedirect { get; }
public:
property bool AllowAutoRedirect {
bool get ();
}
member AllowAutoRedirect : bool with get
function get AllowAutoRedirect () : boolean
Property Value
Type: System. . :: . .Boolean
true if the request should automatically follow redirection responses from the Internet resource; otherwise, false. The default value is true.
Remarks
Set AllowAutoRedirect to true if you want the request to automatically follow HTTP redirection headers to the new location of the resource. The maximum number of redirections to follow is set by the MaximumAutomaticRedirections property.
If AllowAutoRedirect is set to false, all responses with an HTTP status code from 300 to 399 is returned to the application.
The Authorization header is cleared on auto-redirects and HttpWebRequest automatically tries to re-authenticate to the redirected location. In practice, this means that an application can't put custom authentication information into the Authorization header if it is possible to encounter redirection. Instead, the application must implement and register a custom authentication module. The AuthenticationManager and related class are used to implement a custom authentication module. The AuthenticationManager.Register method registers a custom authentication module.
