    Hey ! I want to dev a ban plugin. And so I need to ban someone even he's offline. So, I have two choices : use the deprecated method : getOfflinePlayer(Username) or build a request POST to get the UUID of the player with the Mojang API. I chose the API so I tried to dev a request POST but the Sysout says : "
    Code:
    > [16:33:27] [Server thread/INFO]: <html>
> [16:33:27] [Server thread/INFO]: <head><title>307 Temporary Redirect</title></head>
> [16:33:27] [Server thread/INFO]: <body bgcolor="white">
> [16:33:27] [Server thread/INFO]: <center><h1>307 Temporary Redirect</h1></center>
> [16:33:27] [Server thread/INFO]: <hr><center>CloudFront</center>
> [16:33:27] [Server thread/INFO]: </body>
> [16:33:27] [Server thread/INFO]: </html>
    "

    I dont understand what I need to do in my code :
    Code:
    private void requestUUID(String string) throws ParseException, UnsupportedOperationException, IOException{
      
        HttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
        try {
            HttpPost request = new HttpPost("http://api.mojang.com/profiles/minecraft");
            StringEntity params = new StringEntity("{\" " + string + "\"} ");
            request.addHeader("content-type", "application/json");
            request.setEntity(params);
            HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(request);
            HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
            String responseString = EntityUtils.toString(entity, "UTF-8");
            System.out.println(responseString);
          
        } catch (Exception ex) {
        } finally {
            httpClient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
        }
      
}
    Could someone help me ?

    @Noctus and why not just store a list of names? Or use the deprecated method that is just deprecated to get people to use UUID instead.
    Using it for this is perfectly fine.

    Thanks ! I'll use the deprecated method but do you know why my request isn't working ?

    @Noctos You are probably just not following the redirects
