Rewrites

Rewrites allow you to transparently route requests to different destinations without changing the visible URL in the browser. Unlike redirects, rewrites happen server-side.

Example: Rewrite Rules

{
  "Type": "rewrite",
  "From Path": "/api/*",
  "Destination": "https://api.example.com/*"
}

When to Use Rewrites

• Proxying API requests to a backend service
• Mapping old URLs to new paths silently
• Combining multiple services under one domain
• A/B testing without changing URLs
