This example creates a redirect rule that forwards HTTPS requests from the WWW subdomain (www.example.com) to the root domain (example.com), while retaining the original path and query string.
When incoming requests match
- Wildcard pattern
- Request URL:
https://www.*
- Request URL:
Then
- Target URL:
https://${1} - Status code: 301
- Preserve query string: Enabled
This rule ensures that only HTTPS requests from www. subdomains are redirected to the root domain, leaving other requests (such as HTTP or non-WWW) unchanged.
For example, the redirect rule would perform the following redirects:
| Request URL | Target URL | Status code |
|---|---|---|
https://www.example.com/products/ |
https://example.com/products/ |
301 |
https://www.store.example.com/products/ |
https://store.example.com/products/ |
301 |
https://store.example.com/products/ |
(unchanged) | n/a |
https://www.example.com/admin/?logged_out=true |
https://example.com/admin/?logged_out=true |
301 |
http://www.example.com/?all_items=true |
(unchanged) | n/a |
http://example.com/admin/ |
