What class/parameter makes the extensions be part of the scanner "Follow redirection when necessary"

Hi guys, I have an extension here and I am looking for a reflective value, although when I look at flow or logger++ the 302 is hit but never followed after the POST. Is there a special trick to have the extension follow the redirects when using IScannerCheck & doActiveScan? Thank you very much!

Which extension are you using? Is this something you have developed?

It is something I am currently developing yes.

The question is really how do you ensure that the extension will get the value of the page after the redirect and not the 302 itself.

There is no automatic way to do this. You'll need to detect the redirect, copy the location header and perform a new request. Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Perfect thanks Liam :) Just wanted to be sure before going this way. Cheers!
