# Redirect 403 to Login

The **Redirect 403 to Login** ECA model automatically redirects anonymous (non-logged-in) users to the login page when they encounter a 403 Access Denied error. This improves user experience by guiding users to authenticate rather than showing them an error page.

* **Improved User Experience**: Users are guided to login rather than seeing an error page
* **Seamless Authentication Flow**: Original destination is preserved, so users return to their intended page after login
* **Automatic Process**: No manual intervention required
* **Role-Specific**: Only affects anonymous users; authenticated users with insufficient permissions still see the 403 error

This model intercepts that error and redirects them to the login page, preserving the originally requested URL so they can be redirected back after successful authentication.
