[Python] Getting request_before_redirect.url is None for POSTS requests in Locust Python

Trying to use locust following the documentation, https://docs.locust.io/en/stable/quickstart.html

from locust import HttpUser, task

class TestUser(HttpUser):

# @task(1)
# def health(self):
# self.client.get("/health")

@task(2)
def post_value(self):
self.client.post(
"/some/route",
headers={
"key1": "value1"
},
data={
"data1": "value1",
})


GET requests are working fine. POST requests are throwing the below error in locust clients.py.

File "/opt/anaconda3/envs/email_bot/lib/python3.12/site-packages/locust/clients.py", line 286, in post
return self.request("POST", url, data=data, json=json, **kwargs)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/opt/anaconda3/envs/email_bot/lib/python3.12/site-packages/locust/clients.py", line 196, in request
url = request_before_redirect.url # type: ignore
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'url'


Tried setting allow_redirects=True but still getting the same error. Not able to identify the root issue. Any pointers will be helpful.
