Since we are proxying the traffic through Burp Suite, we will be able to view the request in `Proxy > HTTP History`.

We can see that the URI contains the `id` parameter set to `wiener`.&#x20;

Let's forward it to the `Repeater` for further modification.&#x20;

Once in the `Repeater`, we can set the `id` parameter to the following and send the request:

```
carlos
```

As we can see the response contains a 302 code. Which means that this is a redirection response.&#x20;

We can follow the redirection however it is not necessary since we have the API key. Let's submit the key.
