Guys I have a used case like getting csrf token from my backend service on post auth call, which is a prerequisite for all my further requests, can i get a help how to achieve this in Ktor as I dont see such used cases mentioned in documentation, bcz my backend service returns 302 with redirection exception, i don't care about exception but what i need is csrf token received from response

I am not sure if Ktor support a redirect for POST requests.

But you can try:

install(HttpRedirect) {
            checkHttpMethod = false
        }

in your HttpClient init

Thanks for the reply Anton I got the solution, we can enable cookies through

HttpClient {
    install(HttpCookies) {
        storage = AcceptAllCookiesStorage()
    }
