{{Glossary("HTTP")}} 307 Temporary Redirect redirect status response code indicates that the resource requested has been temporarily moved to the URL given by the {{HTTPHeader("Location")}} headers.

The method and the body of the original request are reused to perform the redirected request. In the cases where you want the method used to be changed to {{HTTPMethod("GET")}}, use {{HTTPStatus("303", "303 See Other")}} instead. This is useful when you want to give an answer to a {{HTTPMethod("PUT")}} method that is not the uploaded resources, but a confirmation message (like "You successfully uploaded XYZ").

The only difference between 307 and {{HTTPStatus("302")}} is that 307 guarantees that the method and the body will not be changed when the redirected request is made. With 302, some old clients were incorrectly changing the method to {{HTTPMethod("GET")}}: the behavior with non-GET methods and 302 is then unpredictable on the Web, whereas the behavior with 307 is predictable. For GET requests, their behavior is identical.
