What server side? As far as I know, WDT doesn't use the Wikidata server, just the dumps. Or can it access the API directly, now? I have not looked at it in a while.
WDT provides a small API client: https://github.com/Wikidata/Wikidata-Toolkit/tree/master/wdtk-wikibaseapi/sr...
The problem may be that WDToolkit does not consider redirects, because they are not in the Wikidata JSON dump. We have been considering providing them in a separate dump, but this has not happened yet, see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T98320.
Yes, it's probably that. There is a workaround for reading daily MediaWiki dumps but it has not been implemented in the API client.

Hi Lydia! Thanks! Yes this is the Wikipedia Toolkit, though I think this is a problem on the server side and not in the Toolkit.

In our own RDF mapping (which is similar to, but different from, the WDT mapping), redirects are represented by owl:sameAs. Sadly, this does not mean that the query service (or rather, BlazeGraph) resolves them transparently.
