302 Found
Meaning
The requested resource resides temporarily under a different URI. The client should use the URI from the response for this request, but future requests can still use the original URI.
When to Use
When redirecting to a different URI temporarily (for example, during maintenance or as part of a temporary redirect logic).
Example
A web page temporarily moved to a maintenance page returns 302 Found with a Location header to the temporary page, while the original URL remains the same for future requests.
When Not to Use
Do not use for permanent redirection (use 301 or 308) or when the resource actually has multiple representations (not a redirect scenario).
