[iOS] Authorization header dropped when making HTTP requests that redirect

Description

I am requesting a URL of API service which responds with status code 307 (redirect) on success and a URL location in response Headers. This is protected API and needs Authorization header for it to be fulfilled successfully. The problem I am facing is that the Authorization header is not appended to the redirected URL, it is only appended to the original call, and therefore the redirected URL call fails with status 401. This works perfectly fine in Postman but is not working with Axios. This works fine in ReactJS web app and React Native mobile on Android OS, too. The problem is only on iOS platform. I have tried on a bare minimum RN app v.69.5 and v0.67.4 using axios and fetch API and the results on iOS platform are the same, so it clearly is problem on iOS platform with React Native. There is one more strange behaviour, it works fine on iOS, too, if I connect the app with react-native-debugger and inspect the network calls. So the problem is only on iOS platform with chrome debugger disabled. I have tried using maxRedirects: 0 prop and beforeRedirect callback on axios but to no avail.

Version

[0.67.4, 0.69.5]

Steps to reproduce

1. npx react-native init sampleapp --version 0.69.5
2. yarn add axios query-string
3. Add the imports on top:

import axios from 'axios';
import queryString from 'query-string';

4. Place the following snippet in App.js file:

const apply = async () => {
    const url = `https://${baseUrl}/coupons/apply`;
    const token = 'token';
    const ins = axios.create({headers: {Authorization: token}});
    const data = {
      coupon: {
        name: 'SufrExelBL',
      },
      ],
    };
    const params = {
      calculateTotal: true,
    };
    const headers = {
      Authorization: token,
    };
    try {
      const res = await ins.put(url, data, {
        params,
        paramsSerializer: function (params) {
          return queryString.stringify(params);
        },
        headers,
      });
      console.log('SUCCESSSSSSSSSSSSSS', res);
    } catch (e) {
      console.log('ERORROOOOOORRRRRRRr', e);
    }
  };
  useEffect(() => {
    apply();
  }, []);

5. Note the catch block got executed with error 401 returned

Inizia con la riproduzione in App.js usando React Native 0.69.5 e lo Snack fornito, quindi confronta il comportamento di iOS con e senza il debugger di Chrome. Traccia il percorso di reindirizzamento fetch/HTTP di iOS e verifica che un reindirizzamento 307 conservi l’header Authorization, in modo che la richiesta reindirizzata non restituisca più 401.
