Environment
Resolution
To allow redirects edit the following file:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Qlik\Custom Data\QvRestConnector\QvRestConnector.exe.config

<add key="AllowAutoRedirect" value="true" />
This will allow the request to proceed. If you are unsure why the redirect appear in the first place please investigate with your IT team.
