Setup URL redirection in SSRS without using IIS

We're using SSRS 2016 & SQL SERVER 2016 in our environment and don't want to use IIS.
We've a requirement to re-direct report manager URL to Target URL (Similar to URL rewrite function of IIS). When I access the report server URL - http://ssrs01/reports/redirect?<redirectnewurl>
In a nutshell I'm trying to achieve when someone tries to access above URL they will be automatically redirected to the target url <redirectnewurl>
I did research a lot and found this link useful which redirects from http: to https:

But we don't have any need to use SSL as it is only internal environment and looking for optimal solution
Thanks

Thanks for the reply and yes I did try few attempts in changing the ub.Scheme but couldn't achieve the results. Also, my requirement doesn't require SSL and only do URL redirection without any validation similar to "HTTP Redirection" of IIS > 7.

you do not need IIS to install SSRS  ( it will use http.sys (" mini IIS"),)

did you try  .NET "Accepted Solution
