## Error 10046: Invalid redirect target URL

This error indicates that the target URL provided for a URL redirect is not valid.

### Common causes

This error occurs when the target URL provided for a URL redirect is not valid, preventing the redirect from functioning properly due to missing components, such as the scheme (for instance, `http` or `https`) or improper formatting.

### Resolution

You need to specify a valid URL as the target URL. Refer to [Supported URL components in Bulk Redirects](https://developers.cloudflare.com/rules/url-forwarding/bulk-redirects/reference/url-components/) for details on the supported URL components for redirect target URLs.
