ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

The page redirected again and again, more than 20 times, so Chrome stopped. The site sends visitors in a loop, for example from HTTP to HTTPS and back.

Chromium's description

Attempting to load an URL resulted in too many redirects.

Chrome shows it as net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS, error -310. puppeteer and Playwright report the same name when a page fails to load in Chromium.

Common causes

Conflicting HTTP/HTTPS rules: the server forces HTTPS while a CDN in flexible SSL mode connects over HTTP.
www and non-www rules that point at each other.
A login or cookie check that redirects again when a cookie is missing or blocked.
A wrong site URL in the CMS settings, e.g. WordPress home and site URL.

How to fix ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Clear the cookies of the site and reload.
Site owners: follow the chain with curl -sIL https://example.com and fix the rule that sends it back.
On Cloudflare, set the SSL mode to Full (strict) when the server itself forces HTTPS.
Check the CMS URL settings and redirect plugins.

ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS in the screenshot API

When the page itself fails to load with ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS, the API answers 502 with the message The target website could not be loaded (ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS). (target_unreachable). Not billed.

Only the page's own load can fail a render. An image, script or frame of the page that fails with a network error does not: the page is captured as the browser shows it without that resource.
