How to force http -> https using an application load balancer?

If I hit the site with the direct https://site.com it works fine but I'm trying to have http forward to https so that the site can only be viewed securely. My issue is, the redirect I used in the screenshot had no affect on forcing to https. It looks so easy yet I'm not sure what else other than making sure https is configured correctly and the redirect on the 80 listener is configured.


    Add/Edit your HTTP:80
    listener

    Set the action to Redirect

    protocol: https

    port: 443

    set the next dropdown to Original host, path, query

    set the last dropdown to 301 - Permanently moved

There are so many articles on how to do this but it seems like this is the recent preferred method to handle the redirect.
