I have a spec app.yml that I use to setup a service and a frontend in the App platform (I trimmed down the yaml file):
name: airmeeple
static_sites:
- name: frontend
source_dir: frontend
routes:
- path: /
services:
- name: backend
source_dir: backend
routes:
- path: /api
When DO re-routes requests to the backend, it strips the prefix /api such that if the request service.com/api/user, the service will receive the request /user.
Is it possible to configure the reverse proxy such that the prefix is kept when rerouting the request, such that the service sees a request with the path /api/user?
Thanks in advance!
