Answer 1

Try on more call with the Location value from the network response headers

Kotlin Implementation

fun fetchRemoteList(
    url: String,
    context: Context,
    callback: OnFetchListCompleted,
    firstTry: Boolean = true
) {
    val queue = Volley.newRequestQueue(context)
    val stringRequest = StringRequest(
        Request.Method.GET, url,
        Response.Listener { response ->
            GlobalScope.launch {
                callback.fetchListSucceed()
            }
        },
        Response.ErrorListener { error ->
            val locationRedirectUrl: String? = error?.networkResponse?.headers?.get("Location")

            if (firstTry && !locationRedirectUrl.isNullOrEmpty()) {
                fetchRemoteList(locationRedirectUrl, context, callback, false)
            } else {
                callback.fetchListFailed(error?.message ?: "")
            }
        })

    queue.add(stringRequest)
}
