SSL causing duplicate content

I’ve added Cloudflare ssl and I’ve received a warning from moz about duplicate content. When I’ve checked into this I’ve noticed that even though typing in http://domainexample.com redirects to https://domainexample.com a search on https://mxtoolbox.com/ shows http version as status code 200 instead of 301 which is what I would of expected.

My question is, is there some additional configuration I need to do to resolve this issue?

In Cloudflare > crypto I have the following settings:

SSL: Full (strict)
Always use https: On
HSTS: Not configured
Authenticated Origin Pulls: Off
Require Modern TLS: Off
Opportunistic Encryption: Off
TLS 1.3: Enabled+ORTT
Automatic HTTPS Rewrites: On

Thanks

It seems that the 200 ok code is for the page after redirection.

The redirectoion is working correctly. Your server response is 301 sent back to the requester, the reqester instantly re-requests the URL in the preferred form and get as 200 OK.

http://websniffer.cc/ shows the actual 301 whereas mxtoolbox shows 200 OK.
