The SharePoint connector uses HttpClient's DefaultRedirectStrategy, as described here:
https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/http/impl/client/DefaultRedirectStrategy.html It looks like httpclient no longer automatically redirects POST requests using this strategy; it should be LaxRedirectStrategy instead for that to happen. I'll open a ticket and provide a patch.
