Logging in with axios - node.js

Question

I am just starting with web scraping and using axios.
I am trying to take it one step at a time. I am trying to scrape a web page. There is a url for login page like
webpage/login
If I inspect the page the login form which has 2 input fields name and password,
<input type="text" name="login">
<input type="password" name="password">
Once I enter the username and password in the browser, I get redirected to a page which contains the data that I need.
axios({
method: 'post',
url: 'https://mywebsite/login/',
data: {
login: 'Dave232',
password: 'pass23456'
}
})
.then(response=>{
console.log(response.data)
console.log(response.headers);
})
.catch(error=>{
console.log(error)
})
However, when I run my node app, I get the login page html back instead of the next page.
console.log(response.header)
returns

Please help me.
Edit 1:
Just realized that the forms action preperty looks something like this:
<form action="index.cfm?fuseaction=security.login_check" method="post">
I have never seen an action property like this. But I tried the url:
url/index.cfm?fuseaction=security.login_check
which did not work either

You need to handle redirection in your node app. You can access redirect URL using.
response.request.res.responseUrl
