I have the case that need to rewrite the URL

The old URL:

https://abc.local/ui/navigation/data/vsphere.core.folder.monitor.eventsView?objectId=urn:vmomi:Folder:group-d1:bffc54a1-3add-487a-8c5a-4d03f759d1fe

The new URL:

https://abc.local/ui/

Could you please help me. How can I do it?

Many thanks

map $request_uri $redirect {
    default 0;
    /ui/navigation/data/vsphere.core.folder.monitor.eventsView?objectId=urn:vmomi:Folder:group-d1:bffc54a1-3add-487a-8c5a-4d03f759d1fe  https://abc.local/ui/;

}


server {
    if ($redirect) {
    return 301 $redirect;
}

As Richard say, this should work. Map the request uri outside of the server bracket, and then inside it set the if with a redirect to your wanted url.

  • It seem that the long URI here is not accepted by Nginx, it can not start the nginx service if i use this URL in the map the request uri. Do you have any solutions for this?
