Response: redirect() static method

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since October 2017.

Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.

The redirect() static method of the Response interface returns a Response resulting in a redirect to the specified URL.

Note: This can be used alongside the ServiceWorker API. A controlling service worker could intercept a page's request and redirect it as desired. This will actually lead to a real redirect if a service worker sends it upstream.

A Response object.

Exceptions

The specified status is not a redirect status.
