This section covers how to set up the Blueprint node to redirect the user's browser to a different web page.

Open the level you intend to stream.
Ensure an instance of the E3DS_PS_actor is in your level.
Figure 1. Drag and Drop E3DS_PS_actor into Your Level
Open the Level Blueprint.
In the Event Graph, right-click and search for the Keyboard 9 event to add it to the graph.
Drag from the Pressed execution pin of the 9 key event and search for the Redirect To node.
In the Url To Redirect To text field, enter the full web address you want the user to be sent to (e.g., https://eagle3dstreaming.com/).
Connect the nodes as shown below.
Figure 2. Connect the Nodes
Compile and Save the Blueprint.

This section explains how to verify that the redirect command is working.

Connect to your remote editor session in your web browser. Click inside the editor viewport to ensure it has focus.
Press the 9 key on your keyboard.
- Expected Result: The current browser tab hosting the Pixel Streaming session should navigate away from the stream and load the new URL you specified.

This confirms that the Blueprint is successfully sending the command to redirect the client's browser.
