About

This web app showcases two different methods of redirecting to a resource that exists somewhere on the web, using Outsystems.
For example, if you have an image on 'www.wikipedia.com/[...]/imageName.jpg', and I want to share it using 'www.myCompanyDomain.com/image/'
The most obvious method is to use a screen that redirects somewhere else, but we can also use an API for this.
This demo shows that the screen redirect method works well when used in a clickable link, but it has issues when we try to use the redirected content embedded somewhere. That's where the API redirect method comed in! :)
Where can this be used? Imagine that you what to develop something like tinyURL, but using outsystems.
