Support UI redirection

[stevenhorsman]

Currently some UIs with redirections in the log in (for example zosmf) don't work with the API ML because redirects are not modified, so when you log in through the gateway URL and port you get re-directed to the original service and the session is associated with that.

I think this exists on the Broadcom backlog, so there might be more info in that item that can be copied across

Hi @stevenhorsman and thank you for reporting this issue. I don't know whether I understood well the problem or not. Do you mean that if you try for instance to access https://usilca31.lvn.broadcom.net:10010/ui/zosmfca32/zosmf it will redirect you automatically to https://usilca32.ca.com:1443/zosmf/LogOnPanel.jsp?

Thank you!

Hey @taban03 - it's been a little while since I tried, but I think that's exactly what happened.

Hello @stevenhorsman, This problem is probably caused by the usage of absolute paths instead of relative ones, and at the moment API ML does not support absolute paths. I think that @CindyZX is working on this functionality. There is an issue opened #264. Thanks again for highlighting that!

Hi @stevenhorsman , the issue is not there anymore, since it was fixed in the PR #276 . I will close this issue.
