How to set window.location in apigee javascript policy

How to set window.location in apigee javascript policy? As window.location= <url> not working in JS policy. please give me some way to change the location in browser.

@zalak pathak , Window.location is specific to browser. It doesn't make sense to use window.location in Apigee JS policy. What exactly are you trying to achieve in Apigee Edge ?

Hi Anil,

I want to redirect all http requests to https so that it would be secure. So, i added JS policy in which i wrote below:

var req_verb = context.getVariable('request.verb'); var req_scheme = context.getVariable('client.scheme'); var req_host = context.getVariable('request.header.host'); var req_request_uri = context.getVariable('request.uri'); var req_url = "https://" + req_host + req_request_uri; context.setVariable('target.url',req_url);

So, now it is internally calling https and gets the response

but it is not changing browser url and not showing [Secure] ahead of url like attached image. So, i want to change the browser url to https.secure-url-https.png

Setting window.location makes sense for JS code that runs within the browser.

The JS code in Apigee Edge obviously doesn't run in the browser. It is possible, though, for a browser (via XHR) to invoke APIs or URLs managed by Apigee Edge. In that case, You can return a 302 Status Code with the Location header set to the url you want to redirect to.
