3xx Redirection
308
Permanent Redirect
The page has permanently moved, and the request method must not change.
What it means
A 308 Permanent Redirect is similar to a 301, but the client must preserve the original HTTP method when following the redirect. Use 308 when you have a permanent move and need to make sure that POST requests stay as POST requests.
Common causes
- A permanent URL change is in effect that needs to preserve the original HTTP method.
- An API endpoint was permanently moved.
How to fix it
- Update any links or API integrations to point directly to the new URL.
