Help with configuring 301 redirect from old to new domain

General Rules

What is the name of the domain?

What is the issue you’re encountering

Trying to use Cloudflare redirect rules to set up a 301 from http://khamalacopy.com to https://mayakhamala.com, but it is not working. Not sure what I’ve done wrong.

You can use the redirect checker. I see that the request was redirected 2 times.

It definitely works, both for HTTP and HTTPS:

Thanks to those who replied. I’ll chalk my confusion up to beginners’ impatience and browser caches. Indeed it is working just fine.
