Redirection handling in ROKU

Question

I am trying to call an API in ROKU player using bright script. But I a getting "response code -3". But when I am hitting that service on Web Browser it gives the xml in response. Actually there is a redirection in the API which I am using. As I know the redirection is not handled by the ROKU OS level. So How will I come out this situation. Please help me and provide me any solution for that how can I handle the redirection in ROKU?

Thanks in advance.

Roku's roUrlTransfer does handle redirects. – Denis Sep 04 '15 at 23:55 — Denis, Sep 04 '15 at 23:55

The documentation at http://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/roUrlEvent gives CURLE_URL_MALFORMAT as name for the -3 code you got from GetResponseCode() on the roUrlEvent. Try checking the string you get from GetFailureReason() on that same roUrlEvent, which should give a more detailed description of the problem.

Please check if you are missing any header in http request. Check for accept header also.

Check this link how to make Get and Post request in Roku.

request = CreateObject("roUrlTransfer")
request.SetUrl("http://blog.roku.com/developer")
html = request.GetToString()
