HTTP 302 — Found
3xx Redirection
What it means
A temporary redirect. The original URL should still be used for future requests.
What to do about it
If the move is permanent, use 301 instead — a 302 tells search engines to keep indexing the old URL. For a temporary move where the method must not change, prefer 307.
Where it sits
302 belongs to the 3xx family: Further action is needed to complete the request — usually following a redirect.
