URL re-direction issue - robotframework

Question

I am validating a few URL's together using data driver and some are getting redirected still prints 200 response. In this case, the test case needs to fail and mention the reason for failure.
Any leads would be appreciated.
Code snippet:
create session current_session ${URL}
${Response}= get request current_session /${gmail}
Here, I need to verify, if the URL has navigated to right page without any redirection. I using the data driver library.

I think you should separate your test cases. You should have one (or more) for verifying the response body and another one for verifying the URL redirection.
For the latter one I would definitely use SeleniumLibrary.
*** Settings ***
Library SeleniumLibrary
*** Test Cases ***
Redirect Test
Open Browser https://stackoverflow.com/ Firefox
Location Should Be https://stackoverflow.com/
[Teardown] Close Browser
But if you would like to use RequestsLibrary for that one as well, the returned object has an url and a status_code attribute that could be used for verification.
*** Settings ***
Library RequestsLibrary
*** Test Cases ***
Redirect Test With Requests
Create Session SO https://stackoverflow.com/
${response}= Get Request SO /tags
Log ${response.status_code}
Should Be Equal As Integers ${response.status_code} 200
Log ${response.url}
Should Be Equal As Strings ${response.url} https://stackoverflow.com/tags
[Teardown] Delete All Sessions
