HTTP 308 — Permanent Redirect
3xx Redirection
What it means
Like 301, but the method and body are preserved.
What to do about it
Use for permanent redirects of non-GET endpoints — an API that moved, for example.
Where it sits
308 belongs to the 3xx family: Further action is needed to complete the request — usually following a redirect.
