A Mule application uses an HTTP Request operation to invoke an external API.
The external API follows the HTTP specification for proper status code usage.
What is a possible cause when a 3xx status code is returned to the HTTP Request operation from the external API?
A 3xx status code indicates that the request has been redirected to a different URL, according to the HTTP specification. This means that the client must take additional actions to complete the request, such as following the redirection to a new URL provided by the server.
B. The request was REDIRECTED to a different URL by the external API
3xx: Redirection A redirection indicates that further action needs to take place before the request is completed.
